Hope Springs Eternal (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Buckley, Robert

Hope Springs Eternal is a line from an Alexander Pope poem, published in 1734. This composition reflects the resilience of the human spirit and honours the health care workers who are daily risking their lives for us - our true heroes. The music is reverent and contemplative, with emotional ebbs and swells, and eventually builds to a stirring theme of hope and inner strength.Duration: 3.30

Hope Springs Eternal (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Wiffin, Rob

A concert overture with interest and colour for the whole band, Hope Springs Eternal was written during the seemingly interminable lockdowns of 2020. The intention was to compose some positive music as an encouragement during difficult times. It starts with a strident statement before turning fairly shortly to a more reflective response from the woodwind. The opening returns and this time the response is broader before it builds to a peak and unleashes the faster music that follows. Several melodic fragments are introduced before a minor key theme is established. The music becomes lighter as it progresses until it reaches the cheerful and melodic trio section. The minor section makes a brief return before being forever banished by the final statement of the affirmative opening music.Duration: 6.45
