Through a variety of smooth blended keyboard textures, juxtaposed angular percussive motives, and cold metallic punctuation, Glacier by Benjamin Finley tells the story of a typical geologic day in the life of a glacier. Written for 13 players at an advanced level, balance in the ensemble and within the full dynamic spectrum is key to the success of this programmatic work, which bears the subtitle In Memoriam: John Muir. America's most famous and influential naturalist and conservationist, Muir and his supporters formed the Sierra Club to make the mountains glad. This work written in his honor is sure to make players and listeners glad too. This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.
