Joyous Prelude

Grade: 4

Flashy opener with soaring melodies, biting harmonies, and thundering percussion. A strong workout in 12/8 for better bands.
 

Dancing In Rainbows

This impressionistic work depicts generations of children playing in the light spectra cast by a leaded window in an old family farmhouse. The ethereal opening evolves into a powerful development of soaring themes that's perfect for contest.
