Steven Bryant: Monkey - Score Only: Concert Band

Commissioned by Thomas G. Leslie and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Monkey is the wildness of young monkeys, shrieking in unbridled pandemonium. The unsupervised frenzy-mongers eventually come face to face with the ominous threat of adult discipline. They rebel. Discipline fails. The hour of scampering erupts. The mayhem escalates until young and old alike are indistinguishable. Simian hysteria overtakes all.
