Additional info/contents	The "Continental Overture" was commissioned by the California Band Directors Association [CBDA] and was premiered in 1997 at the 40th annual CBDA Conference in Bakersfield, CA by the California All State Symphonic Band, conducted by de Meij. It is a short, dynamic work full of energy and spirit, with a melodic middle section and a spectacular ending. The composer does not try to hide his continental roots: several influences by some of the great European composers can be recognized. Continental Overture was commissioned by the conductor of the California Band and finally premiered on 23 February 1997 at the 40th Anniversary Conference in Bakersfield, conducted by Johan de Meij.
