Program Notes

Jumpstart Fanfare is a musical toast to new beginnings and fresh starts. Commissioned by the Crossings Christian School Band, under the direction of Michael Brown, the piece was written to commemorate a new auditorium being built at their school, but is suitable for any occasion.

Jumpstart Fanfare has several sections with various rhythm changes, dynamics, and sound effects. The first section introduces a bold theme that pushes the past all the way to the slower section marked “with feeling.” This section introduces an emotional punch before driving full force into a juxtaposed version of the opening theme.
