Destino Re-Immaginare BOCOOK JAY

Musique pour orchestres et ensembles

Description :

The overture to Giuseppe Verdi ' s 1862 opera La Forza del Destino (The Power où fête) has remained standard repertoire for orchestras around the world. In this imaginative work for winds, Jay Bocool pays homage to the mastery ofVerdi and begins with the ominous 3-note fête theme from the overture. Throughout the piece melodies are recast and harmonies are embellished, culminating in an exhilarating conclusion where the final seven bars quote Verdi ' soriginal almost identically. A brilliant addition to the wind band repertoire.
