Program Notes

Monterosi is a village in the Italian province of Viterbo in the Lazio region. This work is dedicated to the Accademia Musicale Francigena in Monterosi, on the occasion of the third ‘Tommaso Albani’ a national concert band competition at which the composer is often an adjudicator and guest conductor.

The glorious full sound of the concert band is fully displayed in this beautifully lyric composition. Flowing and melodic, this work creates a wonderful opportunity for exhibiting instrumental colors, phrasing and expressive musicianship.
