This exciting concert opener puts a unique twist on the typical fanfare. After a series of exciting melodic statements, the piece cleverly gives way to the popular Scotch-Irish folksong, Loch Lomond. Eventually, original melodies intertwine with the well-known folksong as the piece comes to a dynamic ending. A wonderful fanfare that does not place excessive demands on young musicians!

About FJH Young Band

Appropriate for middle school and smaller high school groups. Second clarinets usually stay below the break. Parts are written with more independence, and instrumentation increases slightly. There is still adequate doubling in the lower voices. Grades 2 - 2.5
