Composed by Romeyn. Young Concert Band. Sound Foundations Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR386). Score and set of parts. Composed 2015. Duration 2 minutes, 34 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #023-4356-00. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.023-4356-00).An impressive lyrical selection for beginning band, "October Sky" has sophistication and musicality uncommon at this grade level. A beautiful and memorable melody is presented amid varied textures with wonderful sensitivity. The melody develops into a glorious full ensemble and then to a climax invoking images of a breathtaking fall sunset. It then subsides, ending with a heartwarming, soft touch creating a spell to be long remembered. An outstanding lyrical selection!
