Winged Victory by Brian Balmages Band - Score and Sound

Grade 4
This powerful composition links two historic landmarks in Kenosha, Wisconsin-a statue that commemorates those who fought in the name of freedom, and a lighthouse that united an entire town when they fought the government to prevent it from being torn down. Soft lyrical lines combine with powerful fanfares and uplifting themes as the work spans a wide range of emotions. While this version can be performed alone, supplemental parts are also available separately for elementary and intermediate bands (with ample amounts of rest), making this a powerful recruiting tool and a grandiose concert experience!

Such a beautiful piece! I always know that, when I see a Brian Balmages piece in our repertoire, it's gonna a breathtaking one. Playing it this quarter in my community band. And I appreciate that he put English Horn in a concert band piece. We need more pieces like that!
