Salish
Megan Vinther's "Salish" is the opening movement of her larger work, "Salish Suite." A love song to the Salish Sea in Washington state, "Salish" is a sentimental tribute to Vinther's family and her late father.
A lively 3/4 groove accompanies a simple yet profound melody and lush, ethereal pads of chords create a shimmering backdrop throughout. Solos are offered for Tenor 1, Trumpet 2, and Trombone 1. While the rhythmic scheme of the piece is straightforward for most high school groups, the instrument ranges (particularly in lead trumpet and lead trombone) are more advanced.
Included: PDF digital downloads of full transposed score, all parts, and reference mp3.
Level: Advanced High School (see description above)
5 saxes/4 trumpets/4 trombones/guitar, piano, bass, drums (optional vibraphone)
Solo section offered to tenor 1, trumpet 2, and trombone 1
Highest note for lead trumpet = concert C6 (written D above staff)
Highest note for lead trombone = concert Bb4
