Barnett, C. - Cyprian Suite (Band Score & Parts)

The Cyprian Suite is a spirited journey through varied musical moods, with each of four movements based on a different Cypriot folk song.  The opening Servikos is a playful and rhythmic dance in Serbian style.  A tender lullaby, Aya Marina, is followed by the good-natured Exomológhisis, a setting of a humorous song about a confession.  The concluding Agapis·Tin, a song of unrequited love, begins pensively and builds to a dramatic conclusion.
