BAND MUSIC PRESS INVENTION FOR BAND BMP CB3

Invention For Band is a fantasia, or short overture, in free contrapuntal style. In the opening sections, the principal melody is played by most of the sections of the band with thematic variations. The faster allegro development section begins with a fiery motive that is quickly answered by the low brass and the low reed instruments. The percussion section provides both rhythmic drive and melodic color with bells, chimes, xylophone and marimba. Invention For Band contains emotionally powerful variations that add variety to the symphonic band and a fine choice for contest. (Grade 3)
