Symphonic Dances – West Side Story | Blåsorkester
Leonard Bernstein
Instrumentation: wind band
Edition: score and parts
The year 2007 marked the 50th anniversary of West Side Story, considered by many to be Broadway’s greatest contribution to the arts, as well as the most memorable work from legendary composer Leonard Bernstein. Bernstein’s own symphonic setting continues to be performed by every major orchestra and is now available in authentic form for concert band. As with the original orchestral version, individual dances may be performed in combinations to accomodate shorter program needs.
