Contrasting colors and stylistic shifts trace the historic events surrounding “the shot heard ‘round the world” in this challenging and significant new concert band work by Stephen Bulla. A rhapsodic adventure, NORTH BRIDGE PORTRAIT takes us from the merry atmosphere of the pre-revolutionary town through foreboding militant sounds. The fife-and-drum melody, “Washington’s March”,…
