Composed by Gary Powell Nash. African,Contemporary,World. Score and parts. 122 pages. Gary Powell Nash #3553601. Published by Gary Powell Nash (A0.881252).Han River Fantasy Suite is based on and inspired by Nash’s first trip to Vietnam in 2007. Commissioned by a percussion and horn duo, it is a five movement chamber concerto with mvts 1 and 2 performed continuously, as are mvts 4 and 5, giving the aural perception of 3 movements. Mvt. 1, "Dawning" and mvt. 2, "Morning Power Walks" stem from Nash’s morning routine during that particular journey as he walked along the Han River in Danang, Vietnam every morning. Mvt 1 is a slow and lyrical prelude, with vibraphone and chimes serving as melodic and colorful supporting lines for the horn solo and that immediately proceeds to Mvt. 2, a fast and somewhat fiery movement, alluding to a fast power walk.
Mvt. 3. "Moonlight Stroll" is slow and lyrical, highlighted by bowed vibes and triangle being struck while placed on a timpani during a glissando in the middle section. Mvt. 4, "Boat Ride" is a fast and dance-like, composed in compound duple meter and transitions to mvt. 5, "Going Home", in a slightly faster simple quadruple meter.
