This contemporary arrangement by Alex Yoder intersperses pit/percussion led phrases with solid musical scoring. Many of the phrases of the opener and closer are developed with an initial ostinato melodic line and then joined by countermelodies and other layers which are added to the texture to create the same “miniature” beginning to end. The lush ballad creates a reflective and somber mood. Alex Yoder’s musical book could be a perfect fit for younger or less experienced bands that are seeking a highly competitive field show.
“Forever and Again is a complete package from beginning to end!”
Perpetual Motion
A short percussion introduction is followed by a sweet solo that is repeated in various forms throughout the show. This opener is a grand way to enter the field. Just as the title suggests, the music never stops.
Solitaire
There is no break in the mood as we transition directly into “Solitaire”. The solo melody line is presented here in a more somber and contemplative tone.
Threshold
Keeping with the theme of forever and again, the finale is a combination of countermelodies and layers. The show ends with a surprising reprise of “Perpetual Motion” that deftly ties everything together.
