Ataraxia is a somber, yet heroic, Grade 3.5 composition for concert band. It features tight syncopation, interesting modulations, exciting percussion, and sectional independence. Ataraxia is a fantasia on a theme written for Jack Knight, a high school junior with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. It starts with a large brass chorale, explores several ideas and wraps up with a heroic statement of Jack's Theme. It ends with a crushingly loud sonority played in unison rhythm across the band as a triumphant celebration of Jack's spirit. The title, Ataraxia, symbolizes Jack's equanimity in the face of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and the Knight family's search for peace. For more visit http://garretthope.com/ataraxia/.
