    Fantasia on an Irish Hymn (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - O'Reilly, John

    Based on the beautiful Irish hymn Be Thou My Vision, this brilliant fantasia presents a variety of musical styles that will challenge and stimulate the developing band. A broad, modal fanfare opens the work followed by a full ensemble statement of the hymn. A rapid 12/8 percussion ostinatato in the style of traditional Irish folk music sets up the second section and continues under the haunting Mixolydian melody. A drone-style accompaniment and interesting counter-melodies add to the excitement before the hymn returns in a glorious maestoso. This unique combination of musical elements makes for another thrilling and inspiring work from John O'Reilly! Duration: 4.00

Thus, a youth or beginner band can make music and perform together with a band of adults or advanced players.Duration: 2.45
