Forge Ahead!: Tuba

Beginning with a celebratory fanfare, followed by a hushed yet animated melody in the clarinets, the music intensifies, growing in excitement and volume while exploring different themes and sounds as various instrument groups are highlighted. After a moment of reflection and remembrance, the original melody returns in a new key, with a new melody joining in counterpoint as the music drives ever faster toward its exhilarating conclusion.
