  • "Inspired by the Book of Revelation, Gillingham's 'Angels of the Apocalypse' is a dramatic work that features lush, chromatic harmonies, gorgeous lyrical lines and sweeping, breathtaking arpeggios. This is not a piece to overlook!" (J.W. Pepper & Son®, Inc, 2016)

    I like how this says Concert Band, like the wind ensemble I'm in did this and we barely got it to be great before mpa's. How could a concert band do this?

      they mean concert as in concert music, not place wise like concert band, symphonic, or wind ensemble.

      A concert band is a general term for band. Just like wind ensemble or Symphonic band. They all mean the same thing

      @@pxlz0729 “In many traditional U.S. high schools, there are multiple band levels, distinguished by skill level or other factors. In such schools, an audition may be required to advance to further band levels, while the common level would be open to anyone. For example, in many U.S. high schools, "Concert Band" refers to the introductory level band, "Symphonic Band" is the title for the intermediate level band, and "Wind Ensemble" is the title for the advanced level band.” While this is a quote from Wikipedia, this also lines up with my experience

      @@zach237 i live in the US, my school has a concert band and a symphonic band. I was just saying that no matter what skill level it is, all of these ensembles can still be called a “Concert Band” any ensemble with these specific instruments is a concert band.

      Apocalypse originates from the Book of Revelations, where its used to mean “unveil” or “uncover”, as it was revealed to John in a vision of the end of all times.

      The kids at the neighborhood day care center play this in the afternoon after their nap. Half of them on wind and percussion instruments, the other half doing interpretive dance. They really should be on television. They'd be a smash hit on Conan's show.
