Resplendence is an exclamation of joy and serves as the fanfare for a glorious return. Written as Covid-19 restrictions lessened and orchestras once again took to the stage, this uplifting work celebrates a return to normalcy. A joyous theme in G major briefly moves into E-flat major, developing the motif through modal shifts and expanding accompaniments. Variations in the relative minor build to a spectacular climax, driving the accelerating melody to a triumphant conclusion. Colorful with ever changing textures and lyrical melodies, the work embodies the emotions of people rediscovering the joy of being together, and of playing music together.
