Concert Band, Concert Band Grade: 0.5
Farewell at Dawn
As its title suggests, “Farewell at Dawn” is a musical expression of bidding farewell to the night and beginning a new day. The piece opens softly with a gentle motive that evolves through simple, yet expressive material. A short quasi-canon provides a transition for a climax that resolves peacefully using the original musical motive. This is a piece with a mature, lyrical sound that can be performed by the youngest of bands. (1:45)SKU: AL44177 -
