One day, a good friend of mine Christopher Rahn reached out to me letting me know he’s putting together a small wind ensemble made up of collegiate and professional musicians from the Tyler, TX area, and would like me to write a piece for the ensemble. I graciously accepted, and immediately began to conceive this work as a concert opener of some sort.
From the opening bars of the work, it is clear that the music is true to its name – very triumphant and heroic fanfares, soaring woodwinds, and very lush harmonies. The middle section provides a clear sense of catharsis, which only makes the ending that much more powerful. You may be able to recognize a little motif that I use, which vaguely represents William Tell! I hope you enjoy this triumphant fanfare!
