Program Notes
A transcription for concert band of four preludes for piano. Each movement has a unique feeling or theme. Mvt I "Romp - Revelry" is fast-paced with rhythmic and chromatic challenges. Mvt II "Opiated Reverie" is mysterious and relaxed using parallel chromatic lines. Mvt III "Mercurial Revolution" is bright, energetic, and highly-texture with difficult flute and clarinet solos and percussion effects. Mvt IV "Proclamation - Revelation" uses material built from the circle of fourths with a declarative opening, a groovy jazz-inflected middle, and a dramatic conclusion.
