Conveying a spirit of hope and inspiration, this powerful overture (translated Ever Forward ) features a diverse mix of styles and moods. The opening fast theme scored for the full ensemble is rich with vitality and drive. A legato middle section trades themes from section to section and provides a variety of dynamic and emotional contours. The final fast section starts quietly propelled by an incessant Timpani figure, then steadily builds to an impressive full band conclusion. Dur: 5:45 (Grade 4)
