So what I have done is create a chorale that is dedicated to their wind orchestra. The chorale is a slow chorale, but has multiple genres, including: Lyrical, Marchlike, and Timeless. I hope you enjoy A Chorale Dedicated to Besancon, France(En France, il y a un endroit qui s'appelle Besançon. Il se trouve que c'est mon nom de famille ! Donc, ce que j'ai fait, c'est créer un choral dédié à leur orchestre à vent. Le choral est un choral lent, mais a plusieurs genres, y compris : Lyrical, Marchlike et Timeless. J'espère que vous apprécierez Une chorale dédiée à Besançon, France).

If anyone was alive on September 11th, 2001, they know why I have dedicated a piece is homage to this tragic event. The horrific event destroyed important buildings and killed lots of people, the event, simply known as 9/11, has been taught at schools to show how depressing it actually was. And this peice is meant to guide a listener through the day, and show people why it was so bad. It starts out calm, then sirens (trombones) start to go off. The peice takes a chaotic turn, and is scary, then an entrancing, unvelivable quality occurs. And finally, the chaos theme returns! I hope you will pay tribute to the victims and play this at your next concert.

The hurricane, however, did form near Africa which makes me consider it to be a cyclone. On August 27, 1900, Galveston, Texas would feel a punch that would knock down every single building. This piece represents that with swirling woodwinds, tornadic brass, and frightening percussion. In the center of the piece, there is a calm chorale to represent the eye of the storm. After that, it goes back to the evil cyclone themes.

Emotions presenting color has been a common practice for centries, and this peice is using music to convey emotions to present a color. A synesthisiac (like myself) will probably not agree with the colors, but remember, these are emotions, not listening. The first movement (entitled Blue) is a slow, freely inturpreted movement. The second movement (entitled Red) is a quick, stressful movement. The third movement (entitled Yellow) is a Danzoń (a dance from Mexico), the danzoń is light and springy. The fourth movement (entitled Green) is mysterious, with a jumpscare at the end. The final movement (entitled Rainbow) is a combination of all of the other movements.

Overtures! This peice uses the craziest parts of the ocean as its inspiration. From the haunting begining melody continuing throughout the peice, to the chromaticism at the 6/4, or the percussion section, this piece is a surely haunting but interesting overture.
