Fanfare Triumvirate - for percussion ensemble and piano

Jeff Ausdemore

Jeff Ausdemore’s Fanfare Triumvirate is a grand work for percussion orchestra, exploding out of the gate with vibrant colors and an intricate, rhythmically driven theme in 7/8 time. The through-composed, asymmetrical nature of the piece takes the listener on a journey across diverse landscapes, propelled forward by numerous meter changes that create a sense of “falling forward.”Scored for fourteen percussionists and one pianist, the piece demands full engagement from all performers, keeping them on their musical toes throughout. The steady high energy and relatively tight performance duration make it a great contender for either a concert opener or closer.Fanfare Triumvirate ships as a fully bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for either printing or tablet viewing.
