Vampires in the Attic is a creepy and energetic work for young band that emphasizes musicality and ensemble playing. The slow beginning sets a creepy atmosphere as the dark recesses of the attic are explored. As the pace increases, the trumpet section is featured as if vampires are chased around the attic, ending with the vampires returning to their hiding spots as the opening material is revisited, slowing to a delightfully eerie conclusion. |
