Based on the theme 'O Come, O Come Emmanuel,' The Circle begins with a bombastic percussion fanfare leading to an opening of varying meters and tempi. A tender flute and oboe feature brings out the musical theme only to build to the dramatic conclusion. A full compliment of percussion adds to the excitement of the work.
