Swamp Rabbit Stomp

Written to celebrate the natural scenic beauty of the famed Swamp Rabbit Trail in South Carolina, and commissioned by the 2015 South Carolina All-State Junior Band, Michael Sweeney’s “Swamp Rabbit Stomp” is a joyous romp of rhythm and harmony. Exploring layers of sounds as well as an expanded role for the percussion section, this work also calls for a middle section where all members of the band perform with egg shakers. A substantial work, but with a dash of fun! Dur: 7:15
