Concerto for Piano, Winds & Percussion
Gillingham, David R.
Piano Feature
Written with the virtuoso in mind, the Concerto for Piano, Winds & Percussion is perfect for the modern ensemble. The first movement exudes an urgency scored in the rhythms and harmonies throughout, while the second movement, Elegy, reflects on the memory of a friend. The final movement barrels along with spirit and drive, utilizing mixed meter and a full compliment of percussion to bring you to the breathtaking conclusion.
