Dating from the 1600s, the folk song “O Waly, Waly” (commonly known as “The Water is Wide”) forms the basis for this well-crafted rhapsody for band. The lyrical opening section features solos on flute and euphonium, as a four-note motif common to this song and also “Carolina” (South Caroline's official song) is developed. This motif unifies the entire work. A Celtic flavored Allegro takes overusing this fragment, which leads ultimately to a grand Maestoso section for the entire ensemble. A creative and dynamic work for contest or fes tival! Dur: 5:00
