Program Notes
This work is the third movement of Grantham's Symphony for Winds and Percussion.
- Program Note from publisher
Stomp, the third movement from Symphony for Winds and Percussion, was commissioned by Director Donald Lefevre and the West Texas State University Symphonic Band. Grantham writes about the work:
Stomp is an aggressive, swaggering, dance movement that is in swing rhythm throughout. The movement is divided into three large sections and concludes with a coda. The main theme is introduced in the low brass and woodwinds in moderate tempo, followed by a presentation of two highly contrasting themes. These three themes are expanded upon, developed, and combined in the two sections that follow, with each new presentation being introduced by an accelerando to a dramatically faster new tempo.
