Serengeti Sunrise. Beginning.

Original

Serengeti Sunrise composed by Wasson. Concert band. Young Band. Sound Foundations Series. Audio recording available separately. item CL.WFR374. Grade 1. Score and set of parts. Composed 2011. Duration 2 minutes, 13 seconds. Published by C.L. Barnhouse. CL.023-4015-00. "Serengeti Sunrise" was conceived as a musical portrait of an early morning safari across the Serengeti in Africa. Beginning with a bold fanfare, a low ominous ostinato pattern supports a graceful melody, signifying a traveling caravan. In the middle of the work a brief interlude appears which combines various percussion sounds with the woodwinds playing a musical effect of a flowing stream. A recap of the earlier section ends the work with a large ensemble sound. The Sound Foundations and Rising Band Series are carefully written to provide quality programming correlated to the first four semesters of band instruction. The Sound Foundations Series includes publications at two grade levels identifiable by color. The RED Grade. 5 Sound Foundations Series is built upon the rhythmic skills and first six notes introduced in most band methods. The BLUE Grade 1 Sound Foundations publications are built on a range of one octave with expanded rhythms and other musical content.
