Bravado, Gala Flagello (2023)
for wind band

Bravado (2023) was written for the Tanglewood Music Festival 2023 orchestral readings and explores the many connotations of the word “bravado,” a descendent of the Old Italian adjective bravo, meaning “wild” or “courageous.” A person with bravado can be seen as bold or reckless, daring or arrogant, confident or overbearing. The orchestra musically embodies this range of traits through the transformation of the piece’s primary melody.

Instrumentation: Piccolo, flute 1-2, oboe 1-2, bassoon 1-2, clarinet 1-3, bass clarinet, soprano saxophone, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, trumpet 1-3, horn 1-4, trombone 1-2, bass trombone, euphonium 1-2, tuba, timpani, percussion 1-3, harp, contrabass
