Specific information available for subscribers.
* The field drum part is intended to evoke the Basel drums in a variety of sizes. The part may be played by any number of musicians, which, in this case, should be placed in a half-circle behind the orchestra.
Based on two old Spanish organ works: Tiento del primer tono by Antonio de Cabezón (ca 1510–1566), and Batalla imperial by Juan Bautista Cabanilles (1644–1712).
