Gareth has written a fanfare – “rumbling cacophony of sound to show off a bit” – for the 2019 Wellington International Pride Parade, that will bring the theme of FIRE | AHI to life and be performed by Orchestra Wellington!
He felt compelled to write a Pride Fanfare because the opening of the parade cries out for some kind of musical performance.
“This will be a noisy one,” Farr said. “The piece has to compete with decibel levels on the street we don’t usually associate with the concert hall.”
“With their training and professionalism, I’m sure the orchestra players will cut through any of the street noise and get the parade off on the right foot (or stiletto).”
