Allegheny Footprints

A dynamic concert overture inspired by the Allegheny River and its historical meaning, "river where footprints can be seen." The piece opens with bold, energetic gestures before giving way to lyrical ideas that flow through shifting meters. An expressive middle suggests the movement of water, followed by a return of driving rhythms that build to a powerful close. Rhythmic vitality and changing energy make it a strong concert or festival choice.
