Description
Experience a monumental work of contemporary storytelling with Peter Graham’s In League with Extraordinary Gentlemen. This concerto is a masterful exploration of 19th-century popular fiction, with each movement inspired by iconic characters. The first movement utilizes a reversed sonata form to mirror H.G. Wells’s The Time Machine. The second, “The Adventure of the Final Problem,” evokes the struggle between Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty through a slowed-down Swiss ländler and atmospheric echo effects. The final movement, “The Great Race,” follows Phileas Fogg’s journey Around the World in Eighty Days, culminating in a virtuosic moto perpetuo. This significant work is a premiere choice for a major concert centerpiece, offering a profound and musically rewarding experience that highlights the symphonic depth and modern brilliance of the brass band.
