Composed by C. McBride. Concert Band. Heritage of the March Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR335). Score and set of parts. Composed 2005. Duration 5 minutes, 51 seconds. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-3408-00. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-3408-00).An impressive contemporary concert work full of mixed meters, exciting rhythms and haunting motives, "Moonscape" is a challenging tour de force for mature bands. Predominantly in 7/8, every section of the band is fully involved while the percussion section provides the glue which holds the whole piece together in fine fashion. Cory McBride is a talented young composer and "Moonscape" is certainly his most impressive composition to date. Unique and distinctive music that will surely be a favorite for years to come!
