Cyclone by Michael Oare. For Concert Band (Score & Parts). MusicWorks Grade 2. Grade 2. Softcover. Published by Hal Leonard.
The power and intensity of our ever-changing marine environment is portrayed in this descriptive work for young players. Incorporating a simple melodic motif along with syncopated rhythmic energy, Michael Oare effectively depicts the power of nature's most violent storms. Opening with a calm, yet foreboding introduction, the work quickly transforms as the storm draws near. Thundering bass drum rolls, driving rhythmic and melodic ostinatos, and dynamic and textural contrasts propel the piece towards a bold and exciting conclusion. (Grade 2) Dur: 2:55.
