Program Notes:
Throughout ancient history there have been people who seemed to have the uncanny ability to predict the future and give profound revelations of events yet to occur. Much like the prophetic utterances of the ancient Oracle at Delphi, musical works have the power to communicate the profound. Shrouded in the opening mystic sounds, the music grows, leading to bold musical proclamations that are sure to leave a lasting impression, much like the pronouncements of these ancient and musical figures.
