Additional info/contents	Solemnity was composed when the composer returned from his first Midwest Clinic in Chicago. Inspired by all the concert bands that performed there and all the fellow composers he met on that occasion, he decided to write a sort of fanfare leading to a fast theme on a driving rhythm. The piece begins like a fanfare with a solemn character that gives the work its title; the brass have a beautiful part to play here. Then follows a new, energetic theme that uses the same rhythmic motif as the fanfare motif and is presented by the high woodwinds and eventually by more instruments. The middle section is a slow section in which a melancholy theme is presented by the oboe and finally by the rest of the orchestra. After a fugato section, the energetic theme returns and leads to a brilliant coda.
