Hal Leonard Where Mountains Touch the Sky - Buckley - Concert Band Full Score - Gr. 2

Composer: Robert Buckley
Format: Full Score Only
Instrumentation: Concert Band
Level: 2

With sensitive scoring and use of colours and textures, this descriptive piece sounds more advanced and sophisticated than its grade level would suggest. Where Mountains Touch the Sky is a tone poem inspired by springtime in the alpine meadows of British Columbia. While the lofty peaks are still covered with snow, the rivers are flowing and the meadows are coming alive with wildflowers. This lyrical work begins quietly and peacefully, building steadily to a soaring climax before returning to a soft and reverent conclusion.
