Cast in a single movement, Secular Litanies opens with a rhythmic motto that serves as the basis for the entire work. A contrasting middle section features invocations by solo piccolo, solo tuba, and xylophone in unison. Secular Litanies is a dramatic statement that defines its voice at the outset and remains organically true to the end.
