Program Notes
Parade of the Wooden Warriors is a three minute piece aimed at school and community wind ensembles. It describes the advance and retreat of an imaginary army in ancient times. I have attempted to give the music the flavour of a Renaissance dance with the main melody in the Dorian mode and the harmony moving largely in consecutive fifths.
