About this arrangement

SKU: AP.81-BQ14408 Composed by David Marlatt. 5 or More; Brass Ensemble - Quintet; Solo Small Ensembles. Eighth Note Publications. Score and Part(s). Eighth Note Publications #81-BQ14408. Published by Eighth Note Publications (AP.81-BQ14408). ISBN 9781771571272. UPC: 685462021284. English.In ancient Japan, the shogun were the military commanders appointed by the emperor. Grand and regal, when a shogun appeared to the public, there was a sense of awe and power at this warrior leader. Flanked by armies of samurai warriors, their power was obvious and their respect was demanded. This clever piece uses only the five notes used in a pentatonic scale (like playing just the black keys on the piano). This gives it a true Asian sonority.
