FESTIVO (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Gregson, Edward

As the title suggests, Festivo is a festive piece, exuberant in style and lasting some six minutes. Throughout, there is much emphasis on rhythm and the scoring utilises many solo and chamber-like textures. It is cast in rondo form with a longish introduction which announces in fragmented form some of the main ideas. The main theme is light-hearted and exuberant, heard first on clarinets but immediately tossed around the band. The first episode starts quietly but gradually adds layer upon layer of repeated fragments until the whole band is heard. The final statement of the rondo tune is heralded by Tubular Bells and bell-like chords on the brass, after which a short coda brings the work to an exciting conclusion. Duration: 6:00

Festivo (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Nelhybel, Vaclav

The clock will measure only five or so minutes, but a timeless amount of driving energy describes this explosion of sonorities. Five or more percussionists are the catalysts for this high intensity bombardment. A brief, quiet centre section links the dramatic opening and the brilliant conclusion.

Festivo (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Nelhybel, Vaclav - Wagner, Douglas E.

A perennial favorite on concert and contest programs for decades, Nelhybel's Festivo has been re-scored to target the young band. Accessible to a wider variety of ensembles, this reduction is a welcomed addition to the literature. Bold and impressive, this arrangement will certainly be met with acclaim. Bravo! Duration: 6.15
