Processional Fanfare
(6 tpt, 4 hn, 3 tbn, tuba, timpani, tam-tam)
Processional Fanfare is a short work that expands on the motif first heard in the trumpets; a small downward leap followed by a larger leap back up again. This idea is overlapped when the rest of the ensemble enters gradually, and as this happens the harmonies thicken, leading to a bright and celebratory close.
