Spata, Doug: Across the Wind

Thrilling melodies swoop and soar over bristling ostinatos in this exciting concert overture in F Major. With a triumphant style and dramatic range of emotions, players will enjoy performing this piece. Many musical and technical skills are reinforced, including 16th note patterns with slurs, part independence, and accidentals. The graceful middle section of the piece is an excellent place for players to experiment with vibrato. Truly an exhilarating, enriching journey that students will be excited to take again and again!
