John Moss uses a marvelous array of tonal colors and textures in this exciting new concert overture. The music is marked “with spirit and determination” and from the opening sounds this piece captures your attention and takes you through a musical journey of power and beauty. The middle slow section features a flowing chorale and a dignified theme played by the low voices before returning to the energetic fast theme. Rich in musical variety throughout, this is an outstanding composition to develop your band's overall musicianship.
