Force of Destiny

Commissioned in honor of a beloved band director who passed away at too young an age, Force of Destiny is a bold, beautiful, and upbeat celebration of the meaning of life and the pursuit of one’s destiny. A gentle introduction leads to up-tempo themes that are alternately martial and lyrical. The delicate middle section, which builds to a powerful climax, provides an expressive showcase for your band. A strong restatement of the opening theme powers to a bold and dramatic finish. The variety of themes, tempos, colors, and expressions in this piece make it ideal for contest or competition, and an excellent way to showcase the subtly and power of your ensemble.
