Maestro

Written in memory of a beloved educator, this work harkens back to the era of the classic band overture. Beginning with a clarinet solo, the musicians echo their "teacher" before joining in on an emotional introduction. A playful section follows, with melodic moments for all instruments, before the original theme returns for a rousing finale. Influenced by the composer's nostalgia for the style, this overture for band manages to sound reverential and fresh at the same time. A great choice for your next concert or festival performance!
