Sparke, Philip - Glorioso!

The name of this glorious overture speaks for itself: this work is vivacious and sparkling! Majestic fanfare playing enriched by florid woodwind decorations alternates with lively themes full of fierce energy, but there is also lyricism to be found in a lovely cantabile passage. An appealing flashy coda closes the work. This composition will be thoroughly enjoyed by musicians as well as the audience.
