Tales of the Emerald Isle AKEY DOUGLAS

Musique pour orchestres et ensembles

Description :

Yoù ' ll hear the flavoù où traditional Irish sounds along with contemporary concert band scoring in this rich and exciting work from Douglas Akey. The 8th note remains a constant thread as the pieces weaves through rapid timesignature changes, lilting melodies, and driving rhythmic patterns. The slower middle section features a flowing horn melody and richly scored accompaniment figures. An accelerando and modulation lead to the energetic finalsegment in this dynamic and well-scored composition. (5: 20)
