Adventures in Seven. Composed by Huckeby. Concert Band. Concert Band Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR373). Extra full score. Composed 2011. Duration 4 minutes, 37 seconds. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-4041-01. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-4041-01). This exciting work by Ed Huckeby is based on the concept of sevens. After a bold and dramatic introduction in 7/4, an alternating series of 2+2+3 and 3+2+2 rhythmic ostinati provides a foundation for invigorating syncopated melodic lines, interspersed with a series of changing meter and contrasting moods. Septagon provides a wonderful opportunity for the exploration of changing and mixed meter, which will leave your students and audience wanting more. A great choice for your next competition or concert!
