The Arrival of the Black Ships (Brass Octet) Instrumentation: Tp x 3 / Hr / Tb x 2 / Euph / Tub Difficulty: A Composer: Hiroki Takahashi This piece goes back in time slightly from the previous work, "The Bell of Civilization." However, the performance difficulty is higher than "The Bell of Civilization" (3rd Trumpet, take note!). The piece includes a clever touch, such as the rhythm of "The Bell of Civilization" appearing at the end, making those who have challenged the previous piece want to tackle this one again. According to Mr. Takahashi, he plans to create a series going back in time. By weaving together a lively rhythm and a refreshing melody, the piece evokes the anxiety of the arrival of unknown vessels and the hope for a bright future. ◾︎About the Item◾︎ I am selling this item to declutter my belongings.
