Sentinels. Roland Barrett. Grade 2.

Original

Sentinels composed by Roland Barrett. For concert band. Concert Band. FJH Young Band. Full set. score and parts. Score only also available. B1292S. Grade 2. Score and set of parts. Duration 2 minutes, 15 seconds. Published by The FJH Music Company Inc. FJ.B1292. On Easter Island, an isolated triangle of volcanic rock located some 2000 miles west of continental Chile in the South Pacific Ocean, over 600 large stone statues vigilantly stand watch over their desolate surroundings. Ravaged by the harsh winds of time, these aged sentinels, or moai, stand in silent tribute to their Polynesian builders. Archaeologists estimate that these mysterious statues were carved sometime between 1600 and 1750, during a period when the island was heavily forested and resources were plentiful. Appropriate for middle school and smaller high school groups. Second clarinets usually stay below the break. Parts are written with more independence, and instrumentation increases slightly. There is still adequate doubling in the lower voices. Grades 2 - 2.5.
