Abstract This study is an examination of the music for wind ensemble by Joseph Scwhantner. It is divided into two parts: a transcription of the composer’s New Morning for the World (originally for Narrator and Orchestra), and a study of the composer’s four original works for winds: ...and the mountains rising nowhere, From a Dark Millennium, In evening’s stillness..., and Recoil, with emphasis on guiding the conductor through the many challenges presented by Schwantner’s music.
