Honor
Publisher Desc.
Honor was written to give young ensembles a chance work on a lyrical
piece that evokes a sense of compassion towards those that serve. Not
specifically in a specific genre, it uses subtle harmonies of 4ths and 5ths
with an occasional major seventh sound to create a Copland-esque nostalgia.
Honor would go well on a Veterans Day or Memorial Day Program, but also as
just a concert piece to work on lyrical playing at a young age.
This piece directly correlates with the Foundation Warm-Up Series. This
series is designed to follow most beginning band methods. The early sets
focus primarily on airflow, common patterns, and reinforcing concepts
presented in the method books. As the series develops, the sets become more
like a traditional band warm-up, including long tones, flexibility exercises,
articulation, scale patterns, and a chorale.
