£30.69Trumpets a la King (Concert Band - Score and Parts)
Starting out Grandioso, "West Hills'' soon moves into a bright section which is full of excitement. A slow 3/4 section allows the woodwinds to come to the forefront with some beautiful and expressive lines that require some independence between the woodwind voices. A return to a bright tempo brings the composition to a very rewarding climax.
