Sketches from Down Under

Composer: Roland Barrett
Format: Score and Parts
Instrumentation: Concert Band
Level: 3 (Medium Easy)

Drawing its inspiration from "the land down under" and featuring quotations from the traditional Australian tunes "Waltzing Matilda," "Bound for South Australia," and "Advance Australia Fair" in a glorious overture-style medley, this composition salutes the spirit, diversity, and proud heritage of the people of Australia. The musical emotions alternate between the hauntingly beautiful, reverent themes and the joyous, even raucous, folk tunes building to a glorious conclusion.
