Philip Sparke: Suite from Hymn of the Highlands: Fanfare Band: Score

Suite from Hymn of the Highlands draws three expressive musical pictures of the Scottish highlands. The first movement Ardross Castle features solo passages for clarinet and bassoon and features a fascinating bagpipe melody. The second movement Alladale is a saxophone trio with an accompaniment featuring the percussion section. The final movement Dundonnell features two highly contrasting melodies a wild presto and the bagpipe melody first heard in the first movement.
