The Brave

Description

Brian Hogg

Commissioned by McKinnon Secondary College, Victoria, Australia on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the school, “The Brave” was composed for the school’s Symphonic Wind and Ovenden Bands.

The title of the work is derived from the McKinnon Clan motto “Fortune favours the bold”. While the music does not follow any particular event it does attempt to capture a Scottish flavour and character.

Grade: 3.5
