Concert Band - Grade 5
SKU: HL.44010793
Grade 5 - Score and Parts. Composed by Philip Sparke. Anglo Music Concert Band. Concert Piece. Score Only. Composed 2010. Duration 480 seconds. Anglo Music Press #AMP276. Published by Anglo Music Press (HL.44010793).
UPC: 884088547851. 9x12 inches.
In this work the composer follows the models of Mendelssohn (Fourth Symphony), Elgar (In the South: Alassio) and Respighi (Roman Trilogy) by using instrumental color to produce a “sunny” piece, following a holiday in southern Italy, and describing a festival day in Naples. The work starts with brilliant woodwinds and percussion accompanying an opening celebratory theme in the brass. The mood subsides until a trumpet intones a new theme in the style of a Neapolitan serenade, taken up by the whole band. This is interrupted by a passing parade (the local band is not particularly accomplished!) but this disappears into the distance. A vivace follows in typical Neapolitan 6/8 meter, representing the festive dancing which characterises the local celebration. A change of mood is introduced by a horn chorus, but the dancing resumes and eventually joins with the horn theme to bring festivities to a close.
