NORFOLK RHAPSODY, A (Prestige Concert Band Extra Score) - Ellerby, Martin

Extra Score. Norfolk Rhapsody is a short tone poem based on an imaginary day 'somewhere in Norfolk'. Ellerby has scored the opening for recorders resulting in a mysteriously eerie atmosphere, before building into some wonderfully rhapsodic melodies showcasing all sections of the band. An unexpected use of vocals in the coda brings the piece to a poignant and blissful end. Recorded on Polyphonic QPRM157D Spirit of the Dance. Duration 10'00"
