The Wayfarer's Journey
- Composer
- Douglas Akey
Using "The Wayfaring Stranger" as a basis for a freewheeling set of theme and variations, composer Akey has created a remarkably colorful musical tableaux. The work opens mysteriously with a recorder solo (cued in clarinet), and progresses through a widely varied musical scenario with many creative rhythmic and scoring touches. This could easily be the most memorable work of the year for your students and audience!
