£79.99Passages (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Sweeney, Michael
The term passage can variously describe a passageway of travel, a musical phrase, or perhaps the soul's moving on from this world to the next. In this work for band, dark and rich sonorities are contrasted with a lilting, Celtic-flavoured melody as it alternates with striking "passages" from the brass. Later, an alto sax soloist adds a haunting quality to the mood followed by a return of the ethnic drumming heard earlier. This unique and rewarding composition is beautifully paced and skilfully orchestrated using every section of the band.Duration: 7:00

The lyric opening, featuring optional piano and solo for English Horn (or Alto Sax), leads to an invigorating dance-like movement with creative rhythmic and harmonic devices. Challenging for each section, yet certainly attainable and well worth the effort.
