A twenty-minute Concerto for Wind Ensemble in three movements, each a contemporary reflection and invention on older dance forms. Completed by January 15, 2024.
Unlike a solo concerto, a Concerto for Wind Ensemble emphasizes soloistic and virtuosic treatment of various individual instruments or sections in the band. Every musician is engaged and featured.
Difficulty Level Grade 5-6
The older dance forms are treated to humorous invention, but the music ranges from the deftly humorous to the strikingly beautiful.
The character of the music, overall, is direct, clever, engagingly humorous and very-listenable dance music. Unabashedly tonal and melodic without being banal, this is sophisticated music that I believe will appeal to listeners and performers alike.
