Title of Piece: Orient Express Composer: Philip Sparke Level of Difficulty: Grade 5 Publisher: Studio Music Perfomance Time: approx. 8 minutes Piece Description: The BBC commissioned Orient Express in 1986 as its entry in the EBU New Music for Band Competition, where it won first prize. In an attempt to find a pan-European subject, the composer chose the luxury train and the piece is a musical journey across Europe. It opens with the hustle and bustle of a busy station and at last the train gets underway. A short moment of reflection leads back to the final stage of the journey and arrival at our final destination. Adapted From www.philipsparke.com |
