Program Notes
This piece pays tribute to the venerable Carnegie Hall, one of the world's most prestigious performance venues, as well as to vibrant New York City. The opening statement is a bold, brilliant fanfare characteristic of the great hall's splendor. The middle section is calm with engaging melodies, yet rhythmically driven, symbolizing the non-stop activity of a bustling metropolis. After returning to the opening theme, the music concludes with a resplendent finish.
