Composed by Anderson. Concert Band. Concert Band Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR378). Extra full score. Composed 2013. Duration 4 minutes, 38 seconds. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-4185-01. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-4185-01). An exciting journey through the old west, The Great Land Run paints an exhilarating picture of 1889 Oklahoma. A fanfare-like main theme at the beginning is followed by the night around the campfire. As the settlers rest, a gentle storm washes over them bringing forth the questions of what tomorrow may bring. As morning rises, they head back on their way to stake their plot of land and new life. A powerful recap of the main theme drives this piece to an exciting end. With multiple opportunities for solos in the flute, clarinet, oboe, and trumpet, this piece will offer a fun, yet challenging experience for any concert band! Highly recommended!
