Score. Composed by Michael Sweeney. MusicWorks Grade 3. Concert. Softcover. 32 pages. Duration 315 seconds. Hal Leonard #4008614. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.4008614).UPC: 196288183662. 9.0x12.0x0.09 inches.
In the Mississippi River valley, portions of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Illinois lie in a “driftless” region bypassed by ancient glaciers. The resulting scenic beauty is characterized by magnificent rocky bluffs, steep ravines, and forested hills. Secret Valley is a musical journey exploring a winding road through the misty bluffs, or an unexpected forested valley, a grand view of the mighty river, or a surprising burst of foliage on a crisp Autumn day. The piece uses imaginative textures and striking effects to help your imagination run wild. Dur: ca. 5:15.

Michael Sweeney's 'Secret Valley' for concert band is a solid piece. The Grade 3 level makes it accessible for most school and community groups without sacrificing musicality. The score provides good clarity for a concert setting, and the 5:15 duration fits well into a program. The composition feels robust and professionally notated, making it reliable for performance and general programming.

Michael Sweeney's 'Secret Valley' offers a rich sonic landscape for concert band. As an ensemble coach, I appreciate how the Grade 3 level cleverly employs diverse 'imaginative textures' to build a compelling narrative. The score effectively guides the conductor in balancing sections, allowing individual voices to emerge while contributing to a cohesive and evocative whole. Rewarding for developing ensemble blend.
