Description
Written in response to adversity in its many forms, this concert or contest composition for advanced bands celebrates the spirit of rising above. Adversity is represented by various harmonic and rhythmic devices throughout the work and is resolved through creative reworkings of previous melodic material, different textural instrumental combinations and tempo and dynamic shadings. Truly a commentary on not only life’s struggles but the fact that strife also causes positive growth, this complex, yet approachable, composition will challenge your musicians both musically and emotionally.
