Scored for two trumpets and two trombones with opt. Horn for Trom. 1 and Bar. TC for Trom. 2. The opening begins excitedly while giving a sense of moving upward. The first presentation of the theme is very much in a march style and then breaks into more activity with rhythmic alterations. The second section moves to a new key and is essentially a trombone duet and then adds upper voices to place the piece on an elevated plain. Another modulation moves the musical thought even higher while passing the melodic motifs around to the different voices. The Coda gives a sense of elevation and arrival.
