Brass Quintet - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1489837 Composed by Dr. Daniel N. Thrower. 21st Century,Chamber,Classical,Multicultural,World. 17 pages. Https://gildedmusicpress.com/ #1066712. Published by https://gildedmusicpress.com/ (A0.1489837). Hokkaido, Op. 157, for brass quintet was completed on 3 Jun 2024. This piece was inspired during a United States Air Force jazz band concert throughout Hokkaido in May 2024. The concert program included the theme song from a popular TV show shot in Hokkaido titled “Kita No Kuni Kara” in which I played a verse on the flugelhorn with the passion I developed during my years playing flugel solos in the Nebraska Brass Band. The piece fittingly has similarities to “Sakura, Op. 154” which was composed only a month earlier. “Hokkaido” is a beautiful flugelhorn feature, sweet homage to the breathtakingly beautiful northern island of Japan, Hokkaido. Duration: 3:15.
