£137.00Miracle on Prince Street - Gary P. Gilroy
This spectacular tour-de-force was written in memory of the composers mother and was inspired by her charitable deed one Christmas eve. The resplendent writing includes unpredictable changes of style that range from solemn hymn statements to careening passages of wild abandon, humor, and stylistic references to the polka music the composer heard as a child. All of this is topped by virtuosic solo and section writing that features every section. A remarkable work for upper-level bands.
