Grand Mesa Music Publishing Four: On a Remix of Beethoven - Standridge - Concert Band - Gr. 4
Additional Photos:
Composer: Randall D. Standridge
Format: Score and Parts
Instrumentation: Concert Band
Level: 4
Taking Beethoven's four note "fate" motive from the first movement of his fifth symphony, composer Standridge has re-imagined the symphony movement and taken it in remarkable new directions. At first following close to the original for a powerful and exciting introduction, the work then segues into a playful gigue in compound meter, followed by a lyrical section with the primary motive presented upside down in horns, much in the spirit of Beethoven's original. The final section turns up the excitement meter in a 7/8 dance section that caps off this remarkable new take on Beethoven's Fifth with a bang!
