£76.95Rhythm of the Winds - Frank Erickson
What a great interplay of rhythms! History will remember this work as one of the most played concert and contest pieces of all time. The alternation of two rhythms---one syncopated and the other an after-beat pattern---form the rhythmic foundation for the work's theme. This rhythmic pattern has become a staple for many contemporary band compositions. It's just as classy as it is classic! (5:15) This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.
