Description:
Suite Dreams is the fourth installment in Steven Bryant's Parody Suite (along with Chester Leaps In, ImPercynations, and MetaMarch). These are works that take familiar melodies and motives from classic band warhorses and rework them - sort of a remix or mash-up of wind band hits. Suite Dreams draws primarily from the inverted chaconne melody in Holst's First Suite in E-Flat, recasting it in a dreamlike atmosphere, almost as if (sometimes warped) memories of the original are drifting across the stage. Dur: 8:45 (Grade 5) Recorded live by the Bowling Green State University Wind Symphony Bruce Moss, conductor
