(8 Brass) (Level 3) All the images and adjectives commonly associated with kites (peaceful, colorful, playful, etc.) could be used to describe this lovely contemporary ballad. An ethereal opening section featuring the pianist leads gently to a simple statement of the folk-like melody by the soprano sax. Understatement remains the key word throughout. This piece rises elegantly to its climax before floating back to earth. If you are an ECM fan, you will delight in this piece. WWI - Sop; WWI - Alto/Fl; WW III - Clar; WWIV - Fl; WW V - Bass Clar; Tpt IV - Flugel.
