Repercussions

An exciting new work for concert band by Robert W. Smith. The term repercussions is defined as an effect, influence or result that is produced by an event or action. Repercussions uses this concept of cause and effect in its creative approach. Rhythmic figures introduced in the winds are echoed in the percussion. Antiphonal percussion effects throughout create new layers of effect and interest as they interact throughout the piece. Accessible to most concert bands, the driving rhythms and musical interplay of this energetic work offer multiple teaching opportunities in a very appealing setting.
