Composed by Claude T. Smith. Concert Band. Score and set of parts. Composed 1976. Claude T. Smith Publications #CTS-7706-00. Published by Claude T. Smith Publications (CL.CTS-7706-00). A terrific short overture written during the nation’s bicentennial and dedicated to Smith’s wife Maureen. Declaration Overture has a five-note motive in an opening slow section, followed by a driving Allegro where the original five-note motive is put through a series of variations. A composition where each musician will be challenged, easily rehearsed, and provide a satisfying musical experience. Declaration Overture is also available for Flex Ensemble.
