This flexible arrangement allows six or more people to perform with varied instrumentation. If the time allows, form multiple chamber ensemble groups, and listen to each other's performance. It will be a great learning experience for students. For Part 6 ? Percussion can use drum set if not enough players.

Combining styles of fanfare, chorale and procession, I created a festive and sonorous atmosphere for use in ceremonies and such events. The title A Little Festive Music also derives from that purpose; "little" because the instrumentation and song scale are not so large. However, I would like performers to play each and every sound to optimistically advance "little by little". That is a result of my thoughts when composing.
