Description:
This instrumental solo was written for my friend and trumpet soloist, Frank Stubbs. The melody is entirely original and simple in presentation, and whilst struggling to find a suitable title had time to write a simple poem that seems to encapsulate what I'm trying to say through the piece. My Song of Hope My heart is often full, And I'm weighted down. I look in helplessness, at all around. A world of suffering, no place for peace. The broken promises, and no release. Who can sing through days of darkened skies and fear? Where, a voice that dares to rise when none can hear? To say: Be strong, to carry on. And sing with confidence; A song of hope. With hands so often full, Arms wide open. My spirit will not die, Desire subside. Alone, I dare to stand against the storm. My pride and dignity, again reborn. I will sing through storms that darken skies with fear, Mine, a voice that dares to rise when none can hear. I will be strong, I'll carry on. I'll sing with confidence; My song of hope. Andrew R. Mackereth July 2025
