JOY (from Awakening) (Concert Band) - Curalie, Joseph

This positively overflows with joy! An outstanding work - very worthy of your consideration. Interesting metrical shifts, bold statements, and well-placed playful motives add up to an overall creative musical experience. Elements of an "American" sound harkens to the music of Copland, yet is found here distinctly fresh and new. Taken from Curiale's orchestral work Awakening, with the optional harp part included. Highly recommended! Grade: Medium/Advanced
