Imagine a band far off in the distance marching toward you – soft at first, the music becomes louder and louder; the red capes of the bandsway in the wind, getting closer and closer. It was this image that ins pired
Flying Colors. Famed bandmaster Arthur Delamont always programmed a march in his concerts, and the hallmark of his band was their red capes. The work begins very softly with a distant snare drum beat. The trumpets enter quietly with the melody, and with each new melodic entry the music grows and intensifies to a roaring finish. This is a fresh new take on a march, and is sure to please players and audiences alike!
Flying Colors is the third movement of
A Tribute to Arthur Delamont and was commissioned by the West Vancouver Youth Band. Dur: 3:10
