Brass Band - Advanced
SKU: WO.0221SC
Composed by Philip Wilby. Major work for brass band. Serious Concert. Full Score. With Standard Notation. Winwood Music #0221SC. Published by Winwood Music (WO.0221SC).At his death in 1519 Leonardo da Vinci was the most celebrated artist of his age, but his current celebrity draws much of its potency from his amazingly varied interests in all branches of Renaissance knowledge.
Many of his ideas are contained in sketchbooks and Philip Wilby’s work takes a sequence of these as a springboard. They translate his visual studies into purely musical terms, and transform their images, turbulent or intimate, mechanistic or heraldic by turns, into a composition which draws its energy from Leonardo’s great example.
An abridged version of the work – Turba – is also available.
