Program Notes
The narrative of Legend sees the Christ child fashioning garlands of roses for his friends as they play in his garden. Finally, he sets about making one for himself, and finding there are no flowers left, makes and wears a small crown of thorns. This beautiful arrangement of Tchaikovsky touches the essence of this poignant story, and challenges students to consider each note and their contribution to the whole.
