Program Notes

Wanderlust is defined as "a strong desire to travel," but composer Chad Heiny aims to go deeper with this piece. He writes: "I appreciate wanderlust as a meandering of the mind that takes place (hopefully) for all of us a little each day. It's where dreams come from, as well as goals, ideas, etc... the good stuff."

Chad Heiny crafts this sense of wonderment through a soundscape that features several unique elements. Improvised solo opportunities are provided with the intent of allowing the performers to "roam" as they play. Other optional elements for groups to explore include a voice line, steel pan doubling for featured players, and a live looping section within a marimba part. The drumset and percussion players are encouraged to embellish grooves to taste. This work is an adventurous expression of discovery, technically appropriate for an intermediate-level ensemble. Ideal for recitals or contests!
