Ashford Celebration: Full Orchestra

Ralph Ford has scored yet another jubilant overture for your full orchestra. Even though this one sounds difficult, it comes together easily once the unique driving rhythms are conquered. There is broad use of diverse percussion textures and powerful melodic material. Ashford Celebration is a very charismatic choice.

In the full orchestra series, all material (except percussion) is covered in the string writing so the pieces can be performed in their entirety by a string orchestra, or by adding winds and percussion you can perform these works as a full orchestra.
