£84.50Buffalo Dances (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Smith, Robert W.
The lake region around Buffalo, Minnesota, is one of great geographic beauty and historic significance. Originally part of the region known as the Big Woods, the area was covered with hardwoods that were so thick in their overlapping branches, it was difficult to see the road ahead or sky above. The white elm trees grew to six feet in diameter and up to majestic heights of over one hundred feet.The Dakota People lived and prospered in this area between the lakes for 300 years. Buffalo was a favourite hunting and fishing ground for the Dakotas until the arrival of the first European fur traders and settlers. The richness of the natural resources served as a catalyst for modern development, which led to the very progressive region that continues to grow to this day.Buffalo Dances honours the natural beauty, Native-American heritage and the modern prosperity of Buffalo. Beginning with a majestic fanfare, the piece continues with flowing, Native-American inspired melodies over driving rhythmic figures. The centre of the piece is comprised of a simple original hymn song that reflects on the natural beauty of the region. Accompanied by the sounds of Native-American dance, the intensity returns. If one listens carefully the sound of snorting buffalo can be heard amid the festive atmosphere before the return of the concluding fanfare.
