Whirlwinds - John Kinyon

A rhythmic Allegretto theme opens this ABA piece in grand fashion. The first theme will give your band the opportunity to work on a wide variety of 16th-note rhythms while paying attention to dynamics and phrasing. The second theme is in 3/4 time and is slower. It features a swirling melody that gives the piece its distinctive name. The piece then returns to the up-tempo first theme and closes the work with a loud, accelerando ending. (Grade 1---Easy)
