Description
Commissioned by the Richardson (TX) Community Band, Silver Celebration commemorates 25 years of service by their conductor, George Jones.The work combines elements of traditional march style with the bravura of epic film scores, resulting in a piece that is both festive and celebratory in nature. The opening is a rousing 6/8 march featuring various sections of the band and exciting cross rhythms, and then contrasted witha beautifully flowing lyric statement. A brief percussion feature leads to the final section, recapping the opening themes with a flourish and dramatic appeal. Dur: 5:00
