Autumn Scenes

Slow introduction moves into a faster groove section. This melody-driven piece works as a wonderful introduction to complex meters. The majority of the piece is in 4/4, 5/4, and 6/4, but 5/8 bars are interspersed through the final sections of the piece. Perfect for a high school ensemble or a young college ensemble.
