Скачать или смотреть JONATHAN DAVID LITTLE - "Sacred Prelude", Op.15A [STRING ORCHESTRA SCORE]

A natural rubato is felt throughout this haunting, single-movement work for string orchestra. The sound is reminiscent of that of ancient church music. Written in the 'stile antico', it opens with a “Plainsong”, then comes the main central “Anthem”. There is a brief reprise of the opening theme, before the work closes with a more emphatic “Fantasia” (where the sense of rubato becomes almost improvisatory). The work, as a whole, may be said to comprise a poignant “prayer” for strings. [LIVE RECORDING]
