Composed in a similar style to John Williams’ Olympic works, with a fanfare from the whole cornet section to grasp your audiences’ attention, before leading them on a melodic journey through the horn & baritone section. Fanfare calls continue to be heard throughout before the final close. A perfect opener to a concert or second half.

Fanfare and Celebration was commissioned by the Brass Band of the Western Reserve (Dr Keith M. Wilkinson, director) to celebrate their 15th anniversary. Based in north-west Ohio, the band was formed in 1997 and was competing in the Championship Section of the North American Brass Band Championships in less than three years. The first performance of Fanfare and Celebration took place in Akron, Ohio, on November 10th 2012.
The opening Fanfare features the cornet section, in two groups standing either side of the band. A central horn theme brings a change of mood before the cornets take the lead once more. Celebration follows seamlessly and continues the declamatory style until a cantando theme in uneven meter is introduced. A transformed recapitulation ushers in a return of the Fanfare to close the work.

Based on Marc Antoine Charpentier's (1634 - 1705) "Te Deum".
What a way to open any concert. Fanfare and Flourishes is a spectacular short work that mixes all the pageantry of a military tattoo with the well-known Charpentier (1634-1705) Te Deum, a tune everyone will recognise as the theme tune for the Eurovision Song contest! A brilliant piece to start a concert with a bang!
