Description:
Metro Gnome was written at the request of Louis Martinus. He asked if I could write another piece like Serenade with unusual time signatures, because it was good practice for young players to encounter complex rhythms within an essentially popular style. Louis was staying with me at the time in Mallorca during July 1999, and when he got up the next morning, I had the piece ready for him to inspect. It exists in three formats: Wind band, Brass band, and Fanfare band.
