Program Notes

Using a chamber music approach to scoring for wind ensemble, Ken Singleton has created a very authentic wind setting of three Brahms orchestral dances. For advanced groups with strong players in all sections, this arrangement could be an extremely rewarding foray into late-Romantic music, and a great centerpiece for any concert.
