£79.99Passages - Michael Sweeney
The term passage can variously describe a passageway of travel, a musical phrase, or perhaps the soul's moving on from this world to the next. In this work for band, dark and rich sonorities are contrasted with a lilting,Celtic-flavored melody as it alternates with striking passages from the brass. Later, an alto sax soloist adds a haunting quality to the mood followed by a return of the ethnic drumming heard earlier. This unique and rewardingcomposition is beautifully paced and skillfully orchestrated using every section of the band. Dur: 7:00 (Grade 4)
