Alfred The Wind Racers Concert Band Grade 4 (Medium Advanced) Standard

"The Wind Racers" is a fast and powerful work that plays off a single motive that continues to build in energy to the very end. Soaring woodwinds that trade off the main motive juxtaposed with the warmth of the brass section creates a unique dynamic featuring intensely fast and bright flourishes layered over a strong and bold harmonic landscape. A challenging and captivating work, the excitement of "The Wind Racers" will grab your attention and hold you until the final note. (4:30)
