Pilgrim Traveler Concert Band Level 3 Composed by Timothy Broege

Skillfully combining four distinctive melodies from the early-American shape-note hymnal The Sacred Harp, Timothy Broege has created a wonderful single-movement setting for band that includes many moods and styles. Pilgrim and Traveler form the principal themes of the piece and undergo a series of variations. Aylesbury and Jefferson are used as transitional melodies and are combined with the other two as the music becomes increasingly complex and contrapuntal. From tender and serene to bold and stark, this inventive work makes an impressive statement. Dur: 5:45 (Includes Full Performance CD)
