Program Notes

I have composed with the aim of providing directors of elementary level bands with original material that will both inspire and challenge their musicians. The pieces are all tuneful and in very accessible musical styles designed to make the band sound at its very best.

- Program Note by composer

Big Screen Fanfare is a fanfare in the style of a Hollywood movie theme.
