FANFARE (2007)

For Wind Ensemble

Composed for Richard S. Frey

Program Note:

Fanfare is inspired by the times I have stood atop a very high place and gazed out upon a large geographic region. The two mountain ranges that have inspired this piece are the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts and the Grand Tetons of Wyoming. These two mountain ranges are very different in appearance, but the sense of exhilaration and awe that they inspire in me is very similar.
