A contrast between heroic trumpet melodies and lyrical woodwind lines highlight this effective new composition from Alan Lee Silva. Bands will sound their best and love doing it with this distinctive new piece that is suitable for concert or contest.
Staccato brass figures along with woodwind trills and runs highlight the powerful opening of Legend of the Lake. The trumpet states the heroic main theme at m. 10. The dynamics soften in m. 18 for a lyrical flute solo, playing the B-melody. The full woodwind section is featured at m. 26 in a reprise of the B-melody. The trumpets proclaim the A-melody again at m. 34 with full band accompaniment, plus woodwind fills and background lines. The interlude at m. 42 features each section of the band independently as well as the entire ensemble in concerted rhythms.The reiteration of the introduction material at m. 49 builds to a slow maestoso treatment of the A-theme. A short contrapuntal interlude, featuring woodwinds at m. 61, leads to an ending statement with the complete group at m. 66. Measure 68 is a percussion feature that builds to the explosive final tonic chord and staccato unison ending.
