Shimmer (Conductor Score) (Eighth Note Publications) Alfred Publishing Staff

This is a calm piece that is reflected by the meaning of the word ""shimmer"" itself: to shine with a subdued flickering light, as in a reflection on water. The main melody is simple and repeated several times throughout, each time mixed with various harmonies, contrapuntal techniques, rhythmical figures, or countermelodies, to keep the music interesting for performers and listeners.
