Description:
Severe funding cuts in 2015 had a huge impact on Austria's military bands. This piece is about the resurrection of these bands following a political decision in favour of the renowned military music organization structure in Austria. 'The Rise of the Phoenix' is an impressive piece, full of bright, colourful melodies and an incredible positive ambiance. There is a beautiful slow middle section with a touch of romance, leading to a spectacular 'maestoso' finale in which you can hear a hint of a famous military signal (as also used in Von Suppé's 'Light Cavalry Overture'). A positive and challenging piece full of joy and colour!
