Calling for the band to be divided into four separate ensembles (and spread apart if space permits) Villages explores a wide range of harmonic and rhythmic interplay between each of these musical villages.The opening creates a dense canopy of sound out of which the unique identity of each group variously emerges then melts back into the texture. As the fast pace continues melodic fragments are bounced from group to group withinterjections from the percussion. A slower lyric section provides contrast before the frantic pace returns leading to the exciting conclusion. Innovative in its conception this stunning work will expose your students andaudience to dramatically new sounds for band! Dur: 8:15
