Concert band - Grade 2 SKU: CL.011-4186-01
Composed by Romeyn. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR379). Extra full score. Composed 2013. Duration 2 minutes, 45 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-4186-01. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-4186-01). Pirates on the high seas come to life in this programmatic work for young band by Rob Romeyn! Our adventure begins with the ominous sight of the pirate ship as it appears from behind an island. Music builds and the story unfolds, first rhythmically and aggressively, and then calming. A beautifully lyric middle section reminiscent of a sea chantey will help insure that this be a favorite for concert and festival use. Memorable themes and contrasting styles will appeal to performers and audiences alike. Ahoy, Matey!
