Review:
A harshly dissonant opening yields to a gentler theme in William Payn's masterwork, “Legacy”. Through many contrasting styles and moods, the piece takes the listener on an emotional journey through pain, suffering, and loss before closing on a note of triumphant hope. Not for the faint of heart, this piece is a worthy challenge for any advanced group looking to push themselves to the limit of their technique and musicality. 153 measures.
