The music captures the energy and activity of a festival in the fictional land of King Arthur’s Camelot, from the legends in Great Britain. Staccato eighths and quick sixteenth note figures provide the feeling of movement, and traditional yet interesting harmonies provide the feeling of the time period and location. The piece is in ABA form, and although there are two distinct sections, the energy never ceases. There is plenty of interest in every band part, and it’s a wonderful change of pace for your audience to enjoy!
