About
Autumn Falling is a short tone poem for wind orchestra. The work reflects on autumn in the home city of the composer, Manchester, England – a time where almost everything falls. Leaves falling from trees are normal in autumn time, as is the rain falling from the skies - but it is the later the composer is referring to in the main. Manchester is known as the city that receives the most rainfall in the United Kingdom.

Autumn Falling was written with each part intended to be played by one player, although more players can be used through the tutti passages.
