Ariel [Alf:00-38361]

This original overture demonstrates a sense of lightness and buoyancy. The title is borrowed from the sprite-like character in William Shakespeare's "The Tempest." A spirit whose name is derived from "air," Ariel is capricious, ethereal, and mischievous---adjectives that apply to this piece. A cherished new addition to the repertoire! (4:00)
