Program Notes:

I was writing a fanfare for each concert for a number of years From around 1994-1998. These fanfares were played near the end of the intermission to call the audience back to the performance tent at the Bear Valley Music Festival. The fanfares ended when I wrote one using a 12-tone-row. The timpani player went around broadcasting how funny he thought the idea of a 12-tone-row fanfare was, and the somehow ended the fanfares.
