Terracotta. William Owens. Beginning.

Original

Terracotta composed by William Owens. 1963-. For concert band. Concert Band. FJH Beginning Band. Grade 1. Score and set of parts. Duration 1 minute, 45 seconds. Published by The FJH Music Company Inc. FJ.B1422. This stunning work portrays the Terracotta Army of ancient China - an army of lifelike statues consisting of over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots, and 520 horses. Moments of discord and massive percussion sounds symbolize the plight of the 700,000 workers that took nearly 40 years to complete the project. Intense and epic, this work will be an unforgettable portion of your program. Appropriate within the first year of instruction and beginning of the second year. Clarinets do not go above the break, and there is limited use of accidentals. Plenty of doublings in the lower voices. Grade 1.
