Program Notes

Ramp up the adrenaline to a whole new level with this fast-paced work, written in the style of an exhilarating traditional galop. The contrasting sections are punctuated by the humorous "boom-boom" exclamations of the bass drum that can't help but be noticed and enjoyed.

- Program Note from publisher


Galops have always held a special place in my heart, whether they be of the circus or symphonic variety. A great galop should convey humor, excitement and fun; myhopes is that this work, The Boom Boom Galop, succeeds at this requirement.
