Program Notes

The opening of this composition is marked “with unrelenting energy!” by the composer, and with good reason. The percussion section along with inventive hemiola rhythmic patterns in the winds propels this intense segment. The mood shifts completely for the slow Misterioso section which is characterized by layers of instrumental colors and rich brass statements. Rhythmic patterns and interplay between all sections of the band help to energize the final segment, leading to an exciting and powerful finish.
