| Description: Yankee Doodle Fanfareture was written for the Bloomington Pops Orchestra in 2001 to inaugurate that year’s Picnic with the Pops. The arranger felt it was too long to be considered a fanfare, and too short to be named an overture, thus the concoction of its creative name. Short and to the point, it utilizes the tune upon which it is based in various ways, including the use of snippets of it in sometimes discordant and comical fashion. The primary motivation for the piece was to have fun – whether in performance or in listening. |
