Description

“Wondrous Cross,” based on the immortal hymn text by Isaac Watts, is presented here in a profound and moving setting by the renowned Philip Wilby. Known for his deeply intellectual and spiritual approach to brass writing, Philip Wilby transforms the familiar hymn tune into a rich sonic tapestry. The work moves through moments of quiet, introspective reflection to a powerful, resonant climax that captures the solemnity and triumph of the text. This is a substantial and highly artistic choice for church services, memorial events, or any concert program calling for a work of significant emotional and musical depth, embodying the pinnacle of modern British brass composition.
