A forceful brass introduction followed by a playfully lyric woodwind statement opens this arrangement for concert band of the third movement to Mozart’s famous Symphony No. 35. While remaining true to the original orchestral version, this arrangement maintains modest range and technical demands on the student musician. The Menuetto from Symphony No. 35 is an appropriate choice for developing bands as well as more mature ensembles and would make an excellent concert or contest selection. Don’t miss this opportunity for your students to perform music composed during the classical style period by one of the masters.

Based on the hymn tune My Shepherd Shall Supply My Need, this fantasia is a musical reflection of the biblical account of The Creation. A powerful programmatic piece that opens with the woodwind choir and as the piece develops the mood shifts to excitement and a feeling of exhilaration. The tension and musical drama is brought to a conclusion only in the last measure as the climax is suspended for a long electric moment with the decay of a single chime tone. Without a doubt this is David Shaffer’s most aggressive work to date. Highly Recommended.
