Hanson proclaimed the Lutheran chorale of his youth as "the greatest single musical influence in [his] life as a composer." The chorale makes several appearances throughout his catalog, but this seminal band work makes full use of the Dies Natalis in opening statement, five variations, and a finale. It received its premiere on April 7, 1972, at the Eastman Theatre, performed by the Eastman Wind Ensemble under the direction of Donald Hunsberger in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Eastman School of Music. For high school bands and above. Dur.: 15'
