This fanfare is dedicated to Sir Barry Curtis, with grateful thanks for his many years of support for the Manukau City Symphony Orchestra. The first thirty seconds refer back to the opening of The Journey, written for the opening concert at this Genesis Theatre, which has since become home for the orchestra. The piece then moves into a celebratory fanfare, with the opening melody reappearing and merging with the fanfare at the end.

Spirit Breathe
One into many
In the hush the first hint of a breeze
Slowly the rim of the world lightens
Dull red blazing to white gold.

From The Journey, Tessa Stephens

Written for the Auckland Philharmonia Education concerts, this piece demonstrates the different sections of the orchestra.

After a short introduction played by the full orchestra, each of the sections of the orchestra take turns to play the main theme. The strings begin playing both with the bow (arco) and plucking (pizzicato), followed by the woodwind section which begins with the whole woodwind section and then the double reed instruments, the oboes and bassoons, which have a section by themselves. The brass then take over and finally the percussion lead the orchestra back into a reprise of the opening section to conclude.

Procession was commissioned by the Manukau Symphony Orchestra, as part of the Composer-in-Residence position held by Anthony Ritchie. It was written for the orchestra’s April concert in 2008. The music was inspired by various street processions such as Santa parades or graduations and is buoyant in tone, with strong marching rhythms. A slightly quieter episode in the middle offers some contrast to the rumbustious outer sections.
