Program Notes
This is a fast-paced, white-knuckled musical thrill ride for accomplished bands. Continuously propelled forward by driving rhythms and challenging ensemble passages, the music darts and soar like a high-speed roller coaster of sound. Melodic lines fly by, fueled by a steady influx of jazz-styled influences including Latin, flamenco, and tango. Caution! Contents contain a volatile mix of musically flammable materials!
