  • OVERTURE FOR SPRINGTIME | Written in 1980, Alfred Reed’s “The Hounds of Spring” has quickly become a classic in the wind band repertoire. The work, inspired by the poem, “Atalanta in Calydon”, by Algernon Charles Swinburne, is composed in the traditional three part overture style. The piece opens and closes with a rambunctious romp and features a pastorale interlude in between.
    We hope you enjoy “Hounds of Spring” by Alfred Reed!

    Loves this piece. We played it in high school. Was very fortunate to have such a great musical program.

    Playing this for our softmore UIL program. It’s my favorite full concert piece I’ve ever played, the French horn part is so fun!

    I love this overture, and this band played it very well. I participated in a concert at the Meyerson in Dallas where we played this among other Alfred Redd pieces.

    Why didn’t the horns play the horn solo?

    So many high ranked members. Just curious if Air Force also has other bands with just lower ranked individuals?

      Yes, this is the "D.C. Air Force Band" It's a "select" band. It used to be if passed your audition for this band you started out at E-6. I don't know how it really works now.

    Does anyone here know where I can find just the horn part without paying for the entire score?

      Call a retail print music dealer and order the part only. It might cost you 4 or 5 bucks. J.W.Pepper is probably
      the largest in the country, but many metropolitan areas have a music dealer known to be good at print.
