About this arrangement

Large Ensemble Alto Saxophone,Cello,Clarinet,Double Bass,Drums,Flute,Horn,Tenor Saxophone,Trombone,Trumpet,Viola,Violin - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1025251 Composed by Adrian E. Wagner. Contemporary,Jazz. Score and parts. 46 pages. Adrian E. Wagner #4607643. Published by Adrian E. Wagner (A0.1025251). Composed in 2018, this piece essentially starts out as a waltz, with a surprise halfway through. The first 3/4 melody you hear may sound a tad reminiscent of a waltz composed by Dmitri Shostakovich, which was partially intended. The second melody, consisting mainly of dissected chords, sounds more like carousel music, hence the title. And then we come to the plot twist.Towards the end of the piece, there is a subtle detail the composer threw in, which most listeners might not notice. During a section in C minor, the counter-melody transitions into major 3 bars before the lead melody does. In the counter-melody is an unexpected C major chord in C minor, (an E-natural where you likely expected an E-flat). This was actually done to foreshadow the melody jumping back into major for the finale.To a certain extent, "Carousel City" is Adrian's love letter to Binghamton. He personally believes this piece to be one of the best in his archive, and hopes that you experience as much fun hearing it as he did writing it.
