VIEW SCORE
Westward Suite is the second in a series of Grade 3 / 4 multi movement works that draws inspiration from regions of the United States of America. This work was composed through 2022 and 23 for the bands of Western Colorado University, conducted by Dr. Brett Keating.
Each of the three movements is based on a landmark native to western Colorado. The second movement, Crested Butte is reminiscent of the monolith like natural structure of the same name nestled in the Elk Mountains. The music is strong, coloristic, and highlighted with moments fluidity and sweetness. The final movement, Gunnison Town, is an excitable cityscape, capturing the spirit of this vibrant gateway to the nature of western Colorado.
Westward Suite was premiered at the Colorado Music Educators Association Conference 2023.
