Of Honor and Duty
$49.00
Of Honor and Duty is an overture suggesting two traits of dignified character.
A brief, slow introduction in F Major featuring a horn solo over a timpani roll, is followed by a rhythmic, accented, brass figure supported by percussion and colorful woodwind embellishments. The second part of this section features a contrasting melody in woodwinds braced by an alto saxophone solo. The brass return, and the first section of the overture slows to a meditative 3/4 section in Bb Major. The main theme then returns in F Major, culminating in a final noble punctuation by brass and percussion with woodwind flourishes. Dedicated to Mr. David E. Smith
