Branding Iron evokes the sights and sounds of the life of the iconic American cowboy. Audiences will find themselves rustling up cattle and will hear the hiss of the branding iron. Iconogrophy from thee great American West abounds in this fun programmatic work by James Meredith.
Good music played well inspires the imagination . This rollicking grade 4 work is a joyous romp with cowboys on the range, roping and branding, and breaking the wild broncs . A slower middle section envisions the vast evening sky of the open prairie with twinkling stars, a harmonica by the flickering flame of a campfire, and even the presence of a rattlesnake nearby . It is definitely not a novelty piece but as always, educational and musically challenging .
