Program Notes
Yakka (Pasodoble) (2008) was written for and premiered by the Yecla Municipal Band (Yecla, Spain). It is a pasodoble, which is a two-step dance typically associated with the bull fights of Spain. Yakka is joyful and lively, highlighting various instruments throughout the ensemble as the work takes the listener from the fiery bull fight to a lush lyrical section then back to a victorious and celebratory finish that combines music from the first two sections of the work.
