Academic Festival Overture
Brahms’s Academic Festival Overture was composed in the summer of 1880 for the conferment of his own honorary doctorate of philosophy degree by Breslau University. The piece is based on a number of student songs that would have been familiar to those in attendance at the time. The themes derived from four of those songs have been used in this arrangement for young band and are presented in the same order in which they appear in Brahms’s original. Careful attention to the written dynamics and articulations will aid your students in creating an authentic performance of this transcription. A perfect choice for young bands at festival.SKU: AL20709 -

Academic Festival Overture
Although conceived as a comical academic musical representation by its renowned composer, this overture is lyrical and exciting. There are opportunities for your students to present sudden stylistic changes and tempo shifts which permit for both performance and teaching. It is still used in a variety of settings (even in its comedic intent) in films and on the more serious concert stage. This arrangement includes generous cuing to accommodate incomplete instrumentations. Classic, familiar and even humorous, it is a sure winner for your developing band. (3:45)SKU: AL39563 -

Finale from Brahms’s Symphony No. 1
This easy arrangement from one of the most popular symphonies of all time remains remarkably faithful to the spirit of the original. Starting with a rousing cut-time intro, it moves through a beautiful chorale section to the famous lyric theme, which leads to its ultimate conclusion in a return of the opening music. A great introduction to the works of Brahms. (2:00)
