How do you describe music combining elements of bluegrass, jazz, funk, blues, and just about everything else in between? "Blu-bop!" To further diversify this veritable hodgepodge of styles, it is  written for symphonic band in that most classical (and formal) of forms, the sonata - hence the "black tie" element. Tightly constructed, the piece grooves despite tricky asymmetrical meters - and most of all, it gets audiences and players excited!

Concert Band Score & Parts

Expressing the many different moods and events of a storm, the opening begins with the violins playing a gripping ostinato pattern suggesting that a storm is coming. The first two themes convey the erratic tendency of powerful gusty winds. The storm moves into a peaceful lull with a melancholy third theme played by a solo violin and viola. The storm then grows in intensity as the final statement combines all the elements (or themes) of the storm.

The Repertoire book provides students with short, progressive pieces starting on middle-C position. The last piece, Twilight, has students moving to new five-finger positions with each four-measure phrase: C major, F major, G major, and F minor. A CD of duet accompaniments is included.
