Wind Band Literature Review
Unraveling (2006)
By: Andrew Boysen, Jr. (1968)
Neil A. Kjos, $65.00
Fugue, ~3 minutes
Summary:
Boysen took a short melody and decided to pass it across the band. Unraveling creates
excitement and power, but is not too difficult. All sections have a shot for melody, creating fun
for the ensemble.
Encanto (1989)
By: Robert W. Smith (1958)
JW Pepper, $70.00
Fanfare/Ballad, ~5 minutes
Summary:
With contrasting styles, this work is great for all musicians. This is also one of “those” Smith
pieces that many musicians play, so it’s great for their own personal repertoire. Horn lines are
awesome and not too difficult.
