This piece begins with a festive fanfare whose accent is in the brass. Quite abruptly, a funky passage develops that starts out restrained but develops more and more into a James Brown-style groove. An optional solo drum is notated here for the true "freaks." This is followed by a slow blues that adds calm to the piece. At the end, the fanfare and funk combine to form a striking whole. This piece is highly recommended for your concert repertoire, but also offers itself as a somewhat unconventional change for a competition.
