Locomotion

This short piece is colorful, fast, and bright with a groove. Simultaneously chaotic and controlled, in this piece, the Locomotive is always moving.

Program Notes

This short piece is colorful, fast, and bright with a groove. Scored for two quartets of woodwind and brass instruments, plus piano and vibraphone, the instrumentation reflects the wind ensemble in a microcosm. Simultaneously chaotic and controlled, in this piece, the Locomotive is always moving.
