Category: LIGHT CONCERT MUSIC Composer: Gavin Higgins
Gavin Higgins wrote Ivory Ghosts in 2006 for brass ensemble as one of a collection of short pieces composed in support of the charity Brass Band Aid. It is a haunting miniature created in response to the horrors of the illegal trade in African elephant ivory. This definitive version for brass band and percussion was prepared for the Tredegar Town Band.
Category: LIGHT CONCERT MUSIC Composer: Dimitri Shostakovich Arranger: Andrew Duncan
Tucked away between Shostakovich’s epic symphonies and intense string quartets lie many delightful pieces of a light, tuneful quality. His two Jazz Suites belong to this area of his output.
One of the most famed movements of his popular jazz suites is this rousing march. It is so much like a traditional band march you would be forgiven for thinking that this is what Shostakovich composed it for. This masterly arrangement has been made by the award-winning writer Andrew Duncan. A fantastic and brilliant item for any concert.
Grade: 2+ Performance lime: 3:00 Full recording on CD: Reflections of Freedom.
