Composed by Susi. Young Concert Band. Score and set of parts. C.L. Barnhouse #011-4742-00. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-4742-00). A Fond Farewell is a warm retrospective work for developing bands, which musically expresses the mixed emotions felt by the departure of a retiring teacher, coach or graduates. It begins with two lush melancholy melodies, evoking feelings of sadness over leaving, that build to a dramatic climax with stirring lines. These opening themes shift to a joyous celebration of starting an exciting new chapter in life through a lively change in tempo and meter for an uplifting ending!
