A grandiose, memorable melody begins this inspiring piece. Jared Spears, well known for his tasty percussion writing has created this piece containing driving tempos, and colorful scoring found in the slower sections has outdone himself this time with this wonderful piece. Truly a remarkable piece for either contest or festival material. VERY NICE!
