Missouri River Festival

Filled with rhythmic and harmonic interest as well as memorable melodies, MISSOURI RIVER FESTIVAL is an energetic and enjoyable piece that gives every section in the band an opportunity to shine. Moods of the river are artistically represented in the interplay between Maestoso, Allegro spiritoso and Andante mysterioso sections. Artistic exploration of thematic material is a hallmark of David W. Moore's writing, and you'll find plenty of it here. There is an added practical advantage, too. All brass parts are dynamic, interesting and fun to play, but there is plenty of brass 'resting time' carefully interspersed throughout the piece. You can use MISSOURI RIVER FESTIVAL at virtually any time during in your program without fear of over-taxing the brasses. Outstanding!
