Concert band - Grade 2 SKU: CL.011-4263-01
Composed by Neeck. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR382). Extra full score. Composed 2014. Duration 2 minutes, 40 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-4263-01. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-4263-01). In homage to the B movie suspense/horror genre of the 50s and 60s, Revenge of the Swarm is a fresh, unconventional, but musically and educationally satisfying programmatic work for young band. Melodic themes are contrasted with jagged phrases, with lots of special percussion effects throughout. The striking instrumental colors contribute to a very entertaining and musically rewarding work, which will excite your students, and provide a unique musical moment for your audience.
