Now Available for Concert Band Badlands Overture
Click here to hear a live performance. Click here to download the synthesizer score. Badlands Overture was first published in 1978 and is available once again. It is one of only a few compositions for synthesizer and concert band and has been performed by the composer in concerts throughout the country. From the original performance notes: Badlands Overture, written to showcase the lyrical capabilities of the synthesizer, is neither an avant garde composition nor a work calling for the total resources of the instrument. The synthesizer is used only in a tonal context to give a fairly straightforward piece of program music a sonic "edge" impossible to duplicate with acoustic instruments.
