About
This orchestral work was commissioned by the Gisborne Community Arts Council for the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra and celebrates 100 years of work by the Salvation Army in New Zealand. The work derives, although not obviously, from two tunes associated with the Salvation Army and the nature of the piece is that of an exclamation.
