James Curnow: Sandcastles: Concert Band: Score & Parts

An exciting adventure for bands of a moderate standard. From a brooding fog-shrouded sand castle along the seashore in England to another on the sunny coast of France (including rainstick and spoken wave effects) to an exotic triple-meter Flamenco-esque impression of one in Spain SANDCASTLES is a noteworthy addition to the CMP Passport Plus Series. Referring to varying locations naturally invites contrasting styles in the three separate movements. Delightful Percussion writing and creative effects with colorful orchestration throughout make this imaginative and masterfully-crafted arrangement a memorable asset to modern young band literature. Intriguing!
