Elegy and Celebration

For wind ensemble
Duration: 10 minutes

NOTES
Written for band in 2005, this two-part composition is about the experience of loss and transcendence. A single motive, first heard in the dark opening notes transforms itself into a quiet anthem with variations. In the second movement the motive becomes a dance-like theme in a joyous celebration of life.
