£76.00HARLEQUIN (Broughton) (Concert Band) - Broughton, Bruce

Originally published for brass band in 1984, this revised version for wind band conveys all the hustle, bustle, and agility of the character in a finely crafted musical structure. Ideal as a concert opener or encore, it is sure to delight audiences and provide players with an exciting new addition to their repertoire. Duration: 3:00 American Grade 4+
