Band concert band - Grade 5 SKU: KJ.JB18
Composed by Timothy Mahr. Conservatory Editions. Jazz. Score and set of parts. Neil A. Kjos Music Company #JB18. Published by Neil A. Kjos Music Company (KJ.JB18). This work draws its inspiration from the Norwegian immigrant experience in Minnesota. Research into immigrant diaries, local histories and Norwegian folk tunes proved fruitful in preparing for the composing of this work. A four note theme is developed melodically and harmonically throughout the work. The Norwegian folk song, How Can You Forget Old Norway?, is set polytonally against a cyclical ostinato constructed from the four note theme.
