Description
Along with his First Suite in E-flat, Holst's Second Suiteis among the most treasured landmark works for band. In this adaptation , Robert Longfield has adjusted the extreme ranges, used the instrumentation of the contemporary young concert band, and added liberal cues (particularly for oboe, bassoon, and horn). However, the integrity of the original (form, keys, harmony, etc.) is completely intact. An absolute must for young bands. (11:00) (Grade 3.5)
