Grade 2.5 SKU: CL.011-3484-01
Composed by Earl. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR342). Extra full score. Composed 2006. Duration 4 minutes, 2 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-3484-01. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-3484-01). A exceptionally nice composition for developing bands that utilizes a set of variations based on an eight bar melodic motive. All sections get chances to shine and the contrasts between the individual variations give the piece a distinct sound which is both appealing and educational. An impressive composition for this grade level that is a superlative choice for any concert or contest performance. Very highly recommended!
