Andante

This arrangement is taken from the second movement of Haydn’s “Surprise Symphony.” It follows the form, theme and variations, true to the original- although in a different key. The scoring of this work captures the intent of the original orchestra work, both in flavor and balance,,, a piece that bands can perform with delightful success. The bulk of the work is found in the clarinet section.

It Is Well
$12.00Brass choir scored for four trumpets (opt horn) two trombones, baritone BC/TC and tuba. This entire piece is one of serenity, gentleness and great affect. The introduction is in the lower voices producing a rich sound and sense of expectation. The trumpets add in on the melody with long lines of expression, and then the lower voices offer a response in like manner. The next section increases in movement and dynamic until it modulates to a new key center. The phrases now alternate between the low voices in an almost antiphonal fashion. Another modulation elevates the urgency of the piece and the trumpets carry the entire load throughout this section. The rest of the instruments then bolster the ensemble giving increased strength. The pieces quiets and becomes reflective and then settles with an “all is well.”
