This tone poem for concert band is based on the Old Testament tale of Abraham, who was ready unconditionally to make the greatest sacri_x001F_ce he could: that of his own son, Isaac. In Ferrer Ferran’s starkly contrasting composition the emotions that this tale evokes come to the fore: the bliss of divine life and humanity, as opposed to worry, fear and self-sacri_x001F_fice.
