I was inspired to compose this work because of another sinfonietta (perhaps the most well-known), Sinfonietta by Leoš Janáček, composed for orchestra in 1926. Despite the title, Janáček's Sinfonietta is rather epic in scale and I wanted to compose a work for symphonic band that was similar in size and scope, but one that was, emotionally speaking, the antithesis to Janáček's. While the sinfonietta by Janáček is often lauded as a hopeful vision, mine is rife with uncertainty.
