Why do we Fall? Concert Band - Digital Sheet Music

SKU: A0.1272785

This piece is a slow, reflective piece, meant to capture the feeling of Autumn. I wrote it while watching the leaves change color and eventually fall from the trees through my office window, after all. (I miss that view).

It has several solos and soli opportunities sprinkled throughout, especially in the flute. And because I always felt sad that percussionists often got left out of the slow emotional pieces, I did my best to write parts to include a few more of them than you see in typical slow band pieces.
