Freeway for Band and Solo Trumpet
Grade: 4
“A Freeway Suite” was commissioned in 2011 by the collective energy of LA Trumpet Artist Dusty McKinney, Azusa Pacific University, and Pepperdine University. It is a three movement work that explores the high paced landscape of Los Angeles. Movement I “Daybreak” uses both jazz and traditional idioms to take you from the dawn of a new day through the driving rhythm and industry that compose the persona of Los Angeles.
My idea is that there is music in the air, music all around us; the world is full of it, and you simply take as much as you require. ~Edward Elgar
A song has a few rights the same as ordinary citizens... if it happens to feel like flying where humans cannot fly... to scale mountains that are not there, who shall stop it? ~Charles Ives
Music is an outburst of the soul. ~Frederick Delius
