Kings of Swing

Kings Row Fanfare - Erich Wolfgang

Kings Row fanfarecontinued Erich Wolfgang Korngold's late career transition from period piece and adventure films to adult dramas whose darker tones and complex narratives, which lent themselves well to his operatic writing. Korngold was very much attracted to the psychology and complexity of this character driven drama. What resulted was one of the finest scores he ever composed, which was at once sumptuous, melodically rich, and full of heartache and nostalgia. What is remarkable is that he wrote twelve themes, one for each character, as well as numerous secondary motifs. The manner in which he weaves his themes together, varies their expression, and joins them with exquisite contrapuntal writings offers testimony to his compositional gift and mastery of his craft. In many ways Kings Row is, from a compositional standpoint, perhaps the most satisfying, and best score Korngold ever composed.

Kinizsi - Fucik

Julius Fucik was the king of Czech music, composing many marches, waltzes, polkas, and other light works, and is most famous for his "Entrance of the Gladiators" and "Florentiner" marches. His Hungarian march "Kinizsi", named for the famous Hungarian military hero, is a powerful symphonic march for mature bands. Impressive and unique!

Kirkpatrick Fanfare - Andrew Boysen Jr.

This work has a definite Irish flavor, including a strain of Danny Boy that seems to rise out of nowhere and move forward to a powerful finale. The entire works grows in texture and excitement after opening with a drum and piccolo duet. The "Fanfare" features driving rhythms and exciting brass figures that climax with a resounding finish.
