About this arrangement

Concert Band - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.916361 Composed by Gus Shoemaker. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 70 pages. Gus Shoemaker #4602787. Published by Gus Shoemaker (A0.916361). Opening with a lyrical flute solo with flowing interjections from other woodwinds, this piece, after a slow introduction, bursts into a fast-paced theme in the low voices.  A staccato theme then segues into the original theme presented by the solo flute.  A slow, expressive section featuring multiple soloists follows.  The piece is brought to an exhilarating conclusion with presto percussion and flourishing woodwinds over huge chordal hits.  Medium- to advanced-intermediate in difficulty while still exciting and challenging, this piece should be playable by many high school concert bands or community bands.Approximate duration: ~4'05"INSTRUMENTATION:Flute 1+2OboeBassoonB-flat Clarinet 1B-flat Clarinet 2+3Bass ClarinetAlto Saxophone 1+2Tenor SaxophoneBaritone SaxophoneB-flat Trumpet 1B-flat Trumpet 2+3Horn in F 1+2Horn in F 3+4Trombone 1+2Bass TromboneEuphonium (Euphonium Treble Clef)TubaTimpaniMallet Percussion (Bells, Xylophone, Chimes)Percussion 1 (Snare Drum, Bass Drum)Percussion 2 (Crash Cymbals, Suspended Cymbal, Mark Tree, Triangle, Claves) This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
