Prevision (Fanfarenorchester)

The work Prevision has been composed in a free fantasy form. Sunk in thought the composer sketches his prevision: the development of his small grandson growing up to be an adult man. After a brilliant introduction, a slow march follows, which symbolises the first steps toward adulthood. Aspects such as love and a sense of security, that are indispensable for a positive development, are presented in a calm middle section, after which an energetic closing part refers to the rebelliousness of an adolescent. The grand finale of Prevision expresses the grandfather's and composer's positive picture of the future.
