Toccata (“Atalanta”)
“Woodwind and percussion players usually are unfamiliar with the antiphonal brass choir tradition. I made this modern, more easily readable version of Bonelli’s classic 1600 Toccata for flexible wind ensemble with optional percussion, so that as few as 8 players up to full symphonic band could play in this style. I’ve used it as a dramatic concert opener, with the second, smaller group positioned behind the audience.” ~ Shelley HansonRecorded by the Eden Prairie (MN) High School Wind Ensemble – Dr. Elizabeth Jackson, conductor
