£61.95Two Movements from William Byrd Suite - Gordon Jacob / arr. Douglas E. Wagner
Of all of Gordon Jacob's major contributions to the British wind band repertoire, the (written in 1923) stands as his most-often programmed work. Though originally based on six movements from William Byrd's , this setting for developing band incorporates two contrasting movements including "The Earle of Oxford's Marche" and "Wolsey's Wilde." Like Jacob's wind band work, the music is not a mere transcription from the original keyboard collection, but rather stylized with his own inventive musical spirit for modern concert band. A wealth of material here that opens doors to teachable moments as musical textures---dynamic contrasts, articulations, scoring options---are continually changing. Bravo!

Fragments of the theme are then heard in fun variations juxtaposed against the original theme in augmentation. is destined to become a classic!
