Wildcat Valley Fanfare 號曲

印第安那州中部的野貓溪（Wildcat Creek）形成了一個山谷，連接著霍華德縣地區的所有學校，這首樂曲就是為這些學校而作。打擊樂部分以莊嚴的風格開場，主旋律首先以類似合唱的形式出現。這首樂曲被設計成一首延展的大合唱，其後每一個樂句的力度都在迅速增強，最後以節奏明快、音色絢麗的尾聲達到高潮。作為音樂會的開場曲非常有效。持續時間3:15

原文簡介:
The Wildcat Creek in central Indiana forms a valley connecting all schools in the Howard County area for whom this piece was written. Opening with the percussion section in a stately style, the main theme is first heard in a chorale-like setting. Designed as an extended fanfare, the piece quickly builds in intensity with each subsequent phrase, and culminates in a fast-paced and brilliant sounding ending flourish. Effective as a concert opener. Dur: 3:15
