Transcribed for band in 2018 by the composer, from the original version for SATB choir a cappella.
Program Notes:
Autumn was originally composed for SATB choir, and was later transcribed for wind band by the composer. The choral version features original text inspired by seasonal scenic imagery. The setting for wind band stays true to the pacing and character of the original, with added instrumental texture and colour.
