This is an exciting piece based on the Welsh hymn Cwm Rhondda. Fanfares in the trumpets and woodwind descants float over the stately tune. The melody flows throughout the ensemble ranging from a smooth lyrical statement of the theme to a brilliant marcato feel. This would make a great opening to a concert.
