BRIDGE OF DREAMS was inspired by four Japanese paintings of the 17th and 18th centuries, with each of the suite’s four movements named after the painting it depicts. These paintings may be seen at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, as well as on the museum’s website. Long-esteemed for his horn ensemble works, mixed chamber music, and Concerto, Eric Ewazen celebrates the rich, mellow textures and joyous energy of the horn octet with BRIDGE OF DREAMS. Includes full score and parts.
