"In Varietate Gaudium" loosely translates into "glory in diversity." It is a different take on the European Union motto "In Varietate Concordia," translating as "united in diversity." This programmatic piece is loosely autobiographical in nature. When first thinking about writing for Grade 3 band, my mind drifted back to my own middle school days. My family emigrated from India to the U.S. when I was just starting 5th grade. I began reflecting on my experience as an immigrant child entering an unfamiliar culture and forging a new identity that respects and celebrates my cultural duality. (The score comes with annotations that refer back to the programmatic narrative.)
