Recorded and performed by the Florida State University percussion ensemble (John W. Parks IV, director). Recording courtesy of Garnet House Productions, LLC.
Paul Halley’s exuberant and joyful work Appalachian Morning was made famous by the Paul Winter Consort, and it has been masterfully arranged for percussion ensemble by Omar Carmenates. From a formal, melodic, and harmonic standpoint, it is a straightforward rendition comparable to any of the Paul Winter Consort’s many recordings/performances. However, in this arrangement, Carmenates brings out the bouncing yet fluid rhythmic qualities of the original by adding subtle (or maybe not-so-subtle) lines and colors spread throughout the ensemble.
This will be the perfect closer for a percussion ensemble concert to leave audiences uplifted and humming a catchy melody.
This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.
