Composer: Bough, Thomas

Instrumentation: Solo and Wind Band Instruments: Euphonium

With Concert Band; The "Concerto for Euphonium" was written to celebrate the music prowess and unmistakable artistry of Dr. Demondrae Thurman. Each of the four movements is a tribute to him in a different way. In the first, the virtuostic potential of the euphonium is on display through the assymetric meter, extensive range demands and dual cadenzas. In the second, you can literally hear Demondrae singing his children to sleep with two French-Candadian lullabies. In the third, listen to his moving and beautiful rendition of his favorite spiritual, "Deep River." In the final movement, the joy of music and life explode into a triumphant, up-tempo setting of "Deep River." Bring your high chops, because this movement launches into the stratosphere
