Silver Winds [Alf:00-24769]

Inspired by the official Command Exhibition Parachute Demonstration Team from Fort Benning, Georgia, your performers and the audience will enjoy Victor L³pez's musical journey from the haunting beginning to the dark heroic melody with the ostinato skillfully written in a seamless fashion. Beautiful color is brought to the melody with the joining of the baritones, flutes, and clarinets. The lyrical section involves a chorale-like clarinet choir accompanying a beautiful oboe solo. The rousing finale brings built upon a driving pulse carried by the low voices as this work races to a close. "Silver Winds" is exciting to conduct and to prepare.
