£82.50Conquest - Mark Lortz
This programmatic composition depicts a dark and intense journey to conquer an enemy force. A mysterious introduction exudes an ominous tone as the dampened pulse of the bass drum creates the timbre of a resolute heartbeat as opposing forces gather, then collide. Intense brass statements, brisk woodwind ostinatos, and running lines combine with unrelenting percussive parts to depict a fierce battle scene. The action then subsides into a triumphant flourish that ends the piece with the assertive and uncompromising sounds of victory.

This is in the form of a moto perpetuo. The second variation is a beautiful Andante introduced by a solo clarinet. Following a full band climax the final variation opens with quiet, nervous energy until its main theme is introduced.The chorale makes a brief appearance until the main theme reappears. This leads to a triumphant final augmented statement of the chorale theme, decorated by theflorid clarinet theme in the upper woodwinds. A dazzling new concert work.
