Resplendence

"Resplendence" is a brilliant shine, a glowing splendor; here it is an exclamation of joy and serves as a fanfare for a glorious return. An uplifting theme in G major briefly moves into E-flat major, developing the motif through modal shifts and expanding accompaniments. Variations in the relative minor build to a spectacular climax, driving the accelerating melody to a triumphant conclusion.
