Battle Victorious

$65.00

Written in the traditional sonata form this tone poem depicts the spiritual battle of the Christian against the powers of evil. The first theme of Sound The Battle Cry serves as a call to arms. The second theme shows preparation by way of the cross with Lead Me To Calvary. Suddenly, the Development section thrusts the themes into battle using devices such as the fugue, stretti, imitation, inversion, and augmentation. As with the promised victory, the themes reappear together in a glorious Recapitulation. Eph. 6:11.
