A true band work! J. Clifton Williams's FESTIVAL musically runs the gamut of emotional expression. There is a minimum of exposed passages, making this composition perfect for outdoor performances or for contest presentation. Bold, dynamic, and dramatic are words that describe the total musical effect. This major work should be in every band library.

Recorded at Omega Studios, Rockville, Maryland
by the Washington Winds and the Washington Pops,
