Program Notes:

Boiling Point was written for the International Trombone Festival’s 50^th Anniversary Fanfare Competition in 2023. Written in ABA form, this thrilling work alternates between grand fanfare chords and biting brutality before reaching its cacophonous ‘boiling point’, giving rise to a climactic and spirited ending.
