Fantasy/African-American Spiritual (c/b) Bruce Preuninger

Bruce Preuninger has successfully managed to capture the sound and feel of the spiritual in the context of a large ensemble. In Fantasy on an African-American Spiritual, the composer has arranged the famous spiritual 'My Lord what a Morning,' for Grade 3 concert band. It opens with an incredible surge of harmony in chorale style. This leads to the faster main section that features jazzy rhythms with creative percussion accompaniment. This one is a real treat!
