Description
Your band will command the stage when you program “Burn Brightly” by Bruce W. Tippette! This piece opens with a strong fanfare and features spirited melodic figures woven throughout. “Burn Brightly” captures the feeling of working together to passionately pursue a common goal.
Program Notes
I was approached in the fall of 2022 to create a multi-level work for the Washington Irving Intermediate Band and the Sleepy Hollow Middle School and High School Bands in New York. Rather than compose one piece with three different difficulties that could be played simultaneously, I created three separate pieces that, once combined, create one “super” piece.
