Grade 2.5 SKU: CL.011-3542-01
Composed by Huckeby. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR342). Extra full score. Composed 2006. Duration 4 minutes, 43 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-3542-01. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-3542-01). Written in classic overture style with lots of syncopation and rhythmic intensity, Celebrata uses a four-note motive in both the fast and slow sections of this very playable, but exciting overture to provide unity and cohesion throughout. The driving percussion and unique harmonies make this piece a real winner for contest or concert performance. This is real music for young bands or more mature ensembles with limited instrumentation.
