This piece's triumphant character evokes the excitement, uncertainty, anticipation, determination, and resilience of embarking on new chapters in life. It inspires performers to clear their minds, refresh themselves, and enter with confidence. An exciting and accessible addition to beginning band repertoire, this offers plenty of opportunities for the ensemble to develop their skills in a fun and engaging manner. With both triumphant tutti moments and more tender, expressive sections the ensemble exploores a range of textures and styles. Clarinets stay under the break and percussion drives the composition with a solid rhythmic foundation. Use this as a opener or closer with this composition that sounds much harder than it really is.
