Description:
This substantive four-movement suite encompasses several musical styles: legato, swing, march, and more, with a spirited bravura conclusion that students and audiences will love. The contrasting movements include the lyrical 'River Echoes,' the jazzy 'Railroads,' the hard-driving 'Machines' section, and the climactic 'Traditions' finale. Though written to represent central Illinois, each movement references significant events encompassing several periods in U.S. history. Kevin Mixon's 'River Valley Legacy' offers abundant opportunities for cross-curricular instruction with a piece that is sure to be a favorite at your next concert.
