Exuberante! (Concert March) by Benjamin Yeo published on 2011-08-27T09:07:04Z Previously the first movement of a major symphonic band work commissioned by the Xinmin Secondary School for their 65th Anniversary celebration concert, titled “Kaleidoscope”, this concert march has been re-titled “Exuberante!” in its published version by Beriato Music (Belgium), which is scheduled to be released later this year. The march opens with a less conventional introduction from the traditional march music form. The slow and lyrical beginning marked “Andante Cantabile”, brings us back in time to the beautiful memories we have with our friends from school. A distant approaching drumbeat is then heard as it brings us back to the present. This is announced by the trumpeting fanfare statement at the start of the fast section. The rest of the march is characterised by a playful and cheerful theme, peppered with little hints of humour, portraying the traits of a happy youth. https://www.bandmusicshop.com/product/bmp10101501/exuberante.aspx Genre Wind Band Music Comment by Benjamin Yeo TRIO section. 2011-08-27T09:33:51Z Comment by Benjamin Yeo Allegro, Alla Marcia. 2011-08-27T09:32:09Z Comment by Benjamin Yeo Unconventional slow introduction for a march, signifying "recollection of wonderful memories of friendship": Andante Cantabile 2011-08-27T09:30:37Z Comment by Benjamin Yeo Approaching distant snare drum, signifying "bringing back to the present". 2011-08-27T09:28:30Z Comment by Benjamin Yeo Woodwind Section Feature 2011-08-27T09:27:41Z Comment by Benjamin Yeo Brass Section Feature 2011-08-27T09:27:10Z
