Additional information: [D] BRILLIANT GESCHRIEBEN VERARBEITETE HIER DER KOMPONIST DAS BERUEHMTE WEIHNACHTSLIED "GOOD KING WENCESLAS", IN UMFANG UND ATMUNG SYMPHONISCH. WIE GEWOHNT BEI THURSTON, SIND DIE HARMONIEN RAFFINIERT UND DAS RHYTHMISCHE INTERESSE WIRD DURCH TAKT- UND AKKZENTWECHSEL HOCH GEHALTEN. JEDER MUSIKER SCHEINT EINE VARIANTE DER MELODIE ZU ERHALTEN UND DIE KOMPOSITION IST ABSOLUT MEISTERHAFT UND DURCHGEHEND GEISTREICH GESCHAFFEN. [E] BRILLAINTLY SCORED AND CLEVERLY CONSTRUCTED, THIS TREATMENT OF THE FAMILIAR CHRISTMAS CAROL "GOOD KING WENCESLAS" IS SYMPHONIC IN SCOPE AND BREADTH. AS USUAL WITH THURSTON, THE HARMONIES ARE SOPHISTICATED AND RHYTHMIC INTEREST IS MAINTAINED WITH SHIFTING METERS AND ACCENTS. EVERY PLAYER SEEMS TO GET A VARIANT.
