Lakeside Portraits
With "Lakeside Portraits", your band has the opportunity to portray three distinctive musical styles in three separate movements. The first movement, "Town Square", is a majestic showpiece for the entire band. Next, in "Sailing at Sunset", the tempo relaxes allowing lyrical solo opportunities for the trumpet. Then, the percussion section really shines in the upbeat "Main Street Celebration". It all adds up to a wonderful musical portrait that's bound to brighten up your next concert. Estimated Performance Time: 5:30 Technical Notes: The bells/xylophone parts are labeled "mallets" on the score. The percussion part is for snare drum, bass drum, crash cymbals, and wind chimes. This piece is written to give your band an opportunity to portray three distinctive musical styles. The first movement, "Town Square", should be played in a majestic manner, begin careful not to rush the tempo during the second presentation at measure 15. The pyramid entrances with the dotted eighth and sixteenth notes and rests should be dynamic and uniformly subdivided by each section of the band. "Sailing at Sunset" provides an opportunity for a trumpet soloist to present the theme in an expressive manner. The director should feel free to expand on the dynamic nuances and phrasing of this ballad to create a peaceful and lush setting. The percussion section will shine while setting the stage for the entrances by the rest of the band in "Main Street Celebration". The main theme should be played in a light, festive manner each time it is presented and the meter changes should flow smoothly with the eighth-note remaining constant. This contrasting 'portrait' should move along at a brisk pace to bring the piece to an exciting finish. Composer(s): This piece was composed by Steve Hodges. Publisher: This piece was published by Alfred Publishing Company. Series: This piece is part of the series "Alfred's Concert Band Series".
