Third Movement of A Tribute to Arthur Delamont-Imagine a band far off in the distance marching toward you soft at first the music becomes louder and louder; the red capes of the band sway in the wind getting closer and closer. It was this image that inspired Flying Colors. Famed bandmaster Arthur Delamont always programmed a march in his concerts and the hallmark of his band was their red capes. The work begins very softly with a distant snare drum beat. The trumpets enter quietly with the melody and with each new melodic entry the music grows and intensifies to a roaring finish. This is a fresh new take on a march and is sure to please players and audiences alike! Flying Colors is thethird movement of A Tribute to Arthur Delamont and was commissioned by the West Vancouver Youth Band.
