Bloom is a moderate-tempo work celebrating the warmth and joy of Spring. The music blossoms from an initial tranquil pulse into a rapturous tide of warmth and beauty. Playable by younger bands, this work provides a mature musical experience for middle school, junior high, high school and college-level ensembles. (Grade 4) (6:25)
