The Headless Horseman - John Prescott

Who can forget the legend of the ominous headless horseman as told in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow? The superstitious schoolmaster, Ichabod Crane, embarks on a harrowing journey as he is chased through the night by this fearsome spectre. This depiction begins with a slow, walking tempo as the ride begins, gradually picking up speed as the horsemans presence is known. The horse first trots, then canters and eventually gallops in a mad dash to get away as ghostly laughter pierces the air, getting ever closer to the terrified schoolmaster.

The Heart and the Crown - Otto M. Schwarz

The river Maas and the town of Oh en Laak in the Dutch province of Limburg are inextricably linked with one another. Thousands of years have passed with wars and other dramatic events. One story is about Josina Walburgis von Lwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort, who was forced by her father to enter the Thorn convent. However, when she met Count Herman Frederik Hendrik van den Bergh it was love at fi rst sight, and the two were secretly married... How will it end? This programmatic epic piece is full of beautiful expressive musical pictures, lots of brass and rhythmical sections.

The Heart's Reflection - Daniel Elder

The Hearts Reflection was originally written for eight-part mixed chorus as a sort of tone poem to Proverbs 27:19: "Just as the water reflects the face, so one human heart reflects another." Broad and symphonic in nature, it reflects these words freely, exploring the emotions behind each. From the original program notes: "It serves as a poignant reminder of the spiritual kinship that exists within humanity and the necessity that we must see ourselves in the hearts of others." The variety of textures and instrumental colors enhance the tonal spectrum of the original and bring out the expressive nature of the work.

The Heaven Tree - Thierry Deleruyelle

The Heaven Tree is based on the fi rst book in an intensely imagined trilogy by author Edith Pargeter. Set during the golden age of cathedral building, this adventure novel explores the splendour and cruelty of the Middle Ages. Thierry Deleruyelle's work is an ideal accompaniment to the novel. With an obvious sense of suspense, his music helps us get in touch with a distant reality that brings the past to life.
