The world heads toward yet another monumental event, as we look toward the year 2000. In celebration of that happening, composer Robert Washburn creates this vibrant tribute to the occasion.

Overture to a New Era - By Caesar Giovannini
Opening with a vivid splash of sound and building to a frenzy, this composition mixes rhythmic energy with contemporary melodic passages. There is a majestic call at the opening that leads to an energetic introductory section. A singing theme emerges, always accompanied by urgent figurations that strive to move forward. A new theme is played in an espressivo fashion by the brass choir and suddenly a brief recollection occurs of the introduction and all its former energies. The opening call is restated in a heroic style, now more thoroughly developed, and evolves into an all encompassing grandioso-finale and coda. (6:00)
