About this arrangement

Concert Band - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.894397 Composed by Zack Richards. 20th Century,Contemporary,Film/TV. Score and parts. 120 pages. Zack Richards #5210677. Published by Zack Richards (A0.894397). Throughout my youth, I was highly influenced by Science Fiction, especially Star Trek: The Next Generation. It inspired me from a creative, musical, and human perspective and was a large factor in most of my current views of the world in which we all live. This work is largely inspired by that show as well as other Star Trek shows and movies. The title is inspired by the idea of space, called the final frontier throughout Star Trek. The first melody pulls many aspects from the The Original Series, including the opening interval of a minor 7th, the rhythmic use of triplets, and the chromatic intervals in the second half of the melody. It sits over quartal harmonies which help create the open "spacey" sound. The countermelody introduced by the Oboe in measure 13 is inspired intervalically and rhythmically by the 2009 Star Trek reboot movie theme. These 2 melodies are used in various ways from start to finish, sometimes rhythmically diminished, sometimes just as a motif passed from one instrument to another. Every section has a moment to shine like a distant star in this fun sci-fi inspired piece. The Score is formatted 11"x17"All parts are 8 1/2"x11"Concert BandInstrumentation:PiccoloFluteOboeBassoon 1 and 2Clarinet in Bb 1-3Bass ClarinetContrabassoonAlto SaxophoneTenor SaxophoneBaritone SaxophonePianoTrumpet in Bb 1-3Horn in F 1-4Trombone 1 and 2Bass TromboneEuphoniumTubaTimpani (5)MarimbaPercussion: Suspended and Crash Cymbal Bass Drum Snare Drum and TriangleAdvancedApprox. 10:30Visit zackrichards.com for more from this composer.  This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
