About this arrangement

Concert Band - Grade 5 SKU: WJ.3011201 Composed by Roland Barrett. Concert Band Grade 4 & Up. Concert Band Series. Concert and Contest. Concert and Contest. Score and parts. Wingert-Jones Publications #3011201. Published by Wingert-Jones Publications (WJ.3011201). UPC: 822424003852. 9 x 12 inches.From the creative pen of this talented young composer, we have Barretts latest contribution to the exciting contemporary literature for band. While not technically difficult, this work is extremely effective, as it presents four contrasting musical sections beginning with The Summoning, which opens with a very commanding tutti entrance that evolves into a quieter, mysterious section, then develops with a sense of urgency into a very strong dynamic ending. This is followed by Fear, a dramatic section with extensive use of percussion, leading to The Eye of the Vortex, beginning quietly, as it starts to develop to a great dynamic climax followed immediately by a serene quietness that leads to the final section, Fury, ending with a dramatic and furious finale. An exceptional, adventuresome new work!
