Hymnsong Variations - Elliot Del Borgo

THE VESPER HYMN is the work upon which this set of variations is based, and the fascinating twisting and turning of the melodic and harmonic material mixes wonderfully with very contemporary rhythmic involvement. Mr. Del Borgo fuses sounds from other generations with those of today. With drive and excitement, this composition flows so comfortably through its tantalizing variants. Powerful! (5:28)

Hymnus - Stephan Jaeggi

Hypernikon - Jan Van der Roost

The Greek word 'hypernikon' roughly translates as 'More Than Conquerors', the motto of Gordon College in Wenham, Massachusetts the commissioner of this piece. The work is inspired by David Rox's very own name the first two letters of his name, D and A, sets the first theme is in D major, with these notes being the tonic and dominant of the scale. After the stately intrada, the tempo accelerates and the festive feel of the march emerges. The trio melody serves as a beautiful contrast before finally ending with the opening theme in a grand tutti.

Hypnotic Memories - Rossano Galante

This charming and somewhat dark musical offering is a departure from this composer's usual "epic" style. Originally scored for fifteen players, this piece is much more intimate than the composer's thickly orchestrated grand works. Stylistically, a minimalistic compositional approach is used as the melodic content slowly unfolds over shifting ostinato patterns.
