Firefly (Brass Band Score And Parts) DOBSON SIMON

Musique pour orchestres et ensembles

Description :

Firefly was composed by award-winning composer Simon Dobson (b.1981) to provide an entertaining uptempo
concert work for community and youth bands. Composed in funk-rock style, and is based on the
groove beat with which it opens. Dobson says, "Firefly was written as a break from my more serious music
and as a 'hat tip' to the various types of beat orientated music I listen to.” It was first performed by Oslofjord
Brass in Norway and in its wind version by Harmonie Shostakovich, Switzerland. Duration: 5-6 minutes.
