Ballyhoo (2015)

Violin, Cello, Piano, Horn, Bass Clarinet

Ballyhoo opens with the Fanfare for the King of Hubris. A Hoity-Toity March follows as he stomps down the aisle and to give his address during the Pretentious Anthem. Shortly after, he makes a Pompous Retreat and the final Fanfare announces his departure.
