Erik Morales: Revolution (Scherzo for Band)

Be immersed in a sea of swirling colors with this bold and exciting new scherzo for band. The furious 3-beat pulse evokes images of spiraling colors and dark, passionate, and intense moods. Animated rhythms give way to a poignant hymn introduced and concluded by a piccolo solo in a contrasting lyrical section. Spiraling once again into a juxtaposition of themes, the work combines excellent percussion writing, soaring melodies, and great counterpoint to drive the piece to a furious and spectacular finish!
