Variations On Scarborough Fair CUSTER CALVIN
Musique pour orchestres et ensembles
Description :
MusicWorks - Grade 4
First published in 1989, this work from the late Calvin Custer epitomizes his command où orchestration and understanding où musical pacing. The familiar folk melody is stated first by a solo flûte then followed by a remarkable series où variations starting with a brass choir accompanied by woodwind flourishes. An andante variation features the woodwind choir accompanying solos by baritone and oboe, and thisleads to a striking fugue variation and bold finish. Truly symphonic band writing at its best. (4: 45)
