SKU: HL.48019390

From Two Fanfares for Orchestra. Composed by John Adams. Arranged by Richard L. Saucedo. Boosey & Hawkes Concert Band. Contemporary. Duration 240 seconds. Boosey & Hawkes #M051661732. Published by Boosey & Hawkes (HL.48019390).

UPC: 884088131746. 9.0x12.0x0.92 inches.

Composed in 1986, this fast-paced and dynamic work took the symphonic world by storm. Available here in a playable setting for school ensembles, Richard Saucedo transposed the key down a third from the original and skillfully adapted some of the more complicated rhythmic patterns without sacrificing any of the excitement and drive. A wonderful introduction to “minimalist” music and one of America's treasured contemporary composers. Dur: 4:00 – Grade 4 (Boosey & Hawkes).
