Composed by Claude T. Smith. Concert Band. Extra full score. Composed 1976. Claude T. Smith Publications #CTS-7706-01. Published by Claude T. Smith Publications (CL.CTS-7706-01). 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.
