Novo Lenio

This is Samuel Hazos 2001 National Band Association award-winning composition, a continuous three-movement work offering various styles and much to keep your interest. Based on a school alma mater, the sections are varied in mood yet cohesive in thematic material. The first movement, Remembrance, is somewhat somber in tone, followed by the more dissonant Qui Non Proficit Deficit; the work closes with the full and proud-sounding A New Beginning.
