This
composition reflects a
colorful time in American
history and is an
opportunity for your band
to discover ragtime
rhythms. Folk hero Billy
Miner (the Grey Fox) was
the last of the old-time
bandits. He was noted for
his unusual politeness
and is believed to be the
originator of the phrase,
Hands up! This
composition is like a
mini movie score and
starts with the Billy
Miner ragtime theme,
followed by a train
robbery, his capture, and
final release. The artful
interplay between
sections gives this piece
the sophisticated sound
and intensity of a much
more advanced work. Dur:
3:35.
