Smith focuses on the sacred band works.One mere recording only scratches the surface of Smith\u2019s extensive sacred band repertoire. Greensleeves: A Symphonic Setting appears in a fresh new take that will give your band something different from its very familiar arrangement by another legendary band composer. Symphonic Psalm contains an original choral melody between two rhythmic and powerful Allegro settings. A similar format appears in Anthem for Winds and Percussion; one of Smith\u2019s more frequently performed works. Intrada: Adoration and Praise features variations on \u201cPraise to the Lord, The Almighty\u201d (optional antiphonal brass and string parts could be included). Rejoice in Glorious Hope is based on \u201cRejoice the Lord is King\u201d and was commissioned by Wingert-Jones Music Inc. (a longtime publisher of many Smith compositions). Overture on an Early American Folk Hymn (My Shepherd Will Supply My Need) is one of Smith\u2019s most popular compositions for band and is a superb opening work. This ongoing Smith series just keeps getting better and better. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bandworld.org\/musiclips\/AnthemforWindsandPercussion.mp3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Listen to recording<\/a><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Claude T.
