Night of Wonder

This pretty contrast piece by Douglas Court will be a sparkling and reverent moment in your holiday concert. Night of Wonder engages fascinating harmonic and contrapuntal forces in a truly unique arrangement of While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks. While the wind players get to work on expressive playing, there's plenty of engaging activity for the percussionists too, so rehearsing this contrast piece won't pose the problems of “uninvolved personnel” that some expressive pieces can create in young bands.
