The Blue Flame Quintet

$52.00$61.00

The Blue Flame Quintet was written for the Lassiter High School Percussion Ensemble in 2005 and premiered at the Midwest International Band and Orchestra Convention in Chicago.

From a student ensemble perspective, it might be one of the most accessible of Burritt’s “marimba plus ensmeble” compositions.”-Percussive News
