Wind Band - Medium

SKU: WO.0285SC

Composed by Bruce Broughton. Brilliant concert opener in every sense! Light Concert. Full Score. With Standard Notation. Duration 3:00. Winwood Music #0285SC. Published by Winwood Music (WO.0285SC).

Harlequin is the most popular of the comic servant characters from the Italian commedia dell’arte who, although a slow thinker, was acrobatic and nimble – he would never perform a simple action when the addition of a cartwheel or backflip would spice up the movement!
These characteristics are aptly portrayed musically in Bruce Broughton’s mini concert overture. Originally published for brass band in 1984, this revised version for wind band coveys all the hustle, bustle, and agility of the character in a finely crafted musical structure. Ideal as a concert opener or encore it is sure to delight audiences and provide players with an exciting new addition to their repertory.
