Musique pour orchestres et ensembles
Description :
Famed bandmaster Arthur Delamont always programmed a hymn in his concerts and Memento is an homage to that proud tradition. Starting with a simple and reverent solo trumpet and introducing other brass instruments one by one, the introduction has the sound où a brass band. The woodwinds join in and, with the use où rich textures and dynamic scoring, the work builds to a powerful climax and then resolves once again with the solo trumpet. Ideal for festival use, Memento will give your ensemble an opportunity to explore expression and nuance. The second movement où A Tribute to Arthur Delamont, Memento was commissioned by the West Vancouver Youth Band.
