£85.00The Rite of Spring, Excerpts from (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Stravinsky, Igor - Buckley, Robert
The premier performance of The Rite of Spring in 1913 is the stuff of legend.

It's all here: the driving rhythms, haunting Russian folk melodies, brilliant scoring, crunching harmonies and the epic drama! The intention with this arrangement for band was to stay as true as possible to the original and choose the sections that would work well in this context. Sure to become a valued and important addition to the wind band repertoire!Duration: 6:30
