The Spirit Endures Grade 2
|
James L. Hosay | |||
|
An
uplifting tone poem for Band, this one is a truly beautiful expression
built upon rich texture and artfully phrased melody.
From a simple hymn-like opening, the piece builds relentlessly to
an intense and inspiring finale. James
L. Hosay is one of the modern Concert Band's literature's great composers
of melody.
So often modern band pieces are built upon a couple of simple
ostinato figures at the expense of any real extended thematic material.
It is indeed refreshing, rewarding and revivifying to have a
beautiful melody to play.
Play it! |
