This work was begun September 19, 2018 and the final notes of the full work were competed the day I played a concert with the Canadian Brass Quintet May 4th, 2019
This full composition is just slightly longer than the average concert; 24 minutes, but a manageable size concert work, and similar to The Mindset with eight sub-group works.
A musical composition that depicts strength and vitality
