Celtic Colours (Horn Eb)

FREDERIK LEROY | M | SOLO HORN Eb | 

While the fog is moving away, a Celtic tribe awakens. The green hills around the Celtic village become visible, nature comes to life. When the fog is completely gone, the sun breaks through timidly. A warm glow descends over the valley.

In this first part, the soloist can show his musical quality. Two melodious main themes alternate and are eventually interwoven. In the second part, the tribe celebrates the harvest festival. Everyone dances and enjoys with abundance all the goodies Mother Nature has given them.

The powerful rhythms give the revelry in the Celtic village after the harvest has been brought in. The typical folk rhythms provide a stirring character.
