2014 - Professional band, "DRUMS OF THE SAAMIS" by Samuel Hazo
Uploaded in 2014, Here's a professional band with "Drums of the Saamis", written by Samuel R. Hazo. Wikipedia says Saamis or Samis is the name of the folks we'd perhaps know as Lapps or Laplanders, northernmost indigenous peoples of Europe.
Thanks to YouTuber Hal Leonard Concert Band,who describes:
Drums of the Saamis was commissioned by the Medicine Hat Concert Band Society of Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. The piece chronicles the merger of the First Nation (first natives) and modern Albertan cultures. The opening tribal drums followed by the haunting melody simulating the traditional wooden flute comprise two themes that are the foundation for the entire piece. Both elements are developed, varied and enhanced throughout as the listener senses the increasing influence of modern day Alberta through the use of modern sounding chords and rhythms. By the end, the marriage of the old and the new is complete. This powerful work closes as it began; a restatement of themes representing the musical and historical foundation of the region.
