Sunan Dances [Alf:00-DHM0501]

Sunan Dances, an innovative work by one of America's most talented young composers, is in one movement consisting of an introduction followed by three large sections. A Chinese melody from the Jiangsu province is interpolated into the work and given western harmonization, orchestration and phrasing -- producing an exciting and beautiful new approach to the contemporary wind band. This highly original composition will be a welcome addition to your concert repertoire! The comb binding creates a lay-flat book that is perfect for study and performance.
