Fanfare for Europe

  • Genre: Brass Ensemble
  • Date of Composition: 1973
  • Commission information: to celebrate Britain’s entry into Europe
  • Piece Duration: 1:30

This short fanfare was commissioned for two gala concerts in 1973, held to celebrate Britain's entry into Europe. To the large brass forces I have added organ and percussion. The music is both homophonic and contrapuntal and is suitably celebratory in mood.
