Eternal Summer is like a breath of fresh air in the warm heat of summer. It is a tuneful composition from composer Peter Terry that exhibits all of the elements he has already become known for - fresh harmonic perspectives, driving rhythms, and wonderful scoring.
Eternal Summer captures the essence of the early summertime, when all things seem possible and the days are long and filled with promise. This fanfare-like work gives a young orchestra the chance to play strong fanfare figures with accented and staccato articulations as well as longer lyrical lines, most noticeably from mm. 23-34. Create a strong contrast between these articulated fanfares and the legato slurred passages and pay particular attention to the dynamics throughout the piece. Make sure to make the section from m. 54 to the end large and dramatic, but save enough energy to finish with a real fortissimo with a good, full tone from m. 62 on.I enjoyed writing this piece and hope your students will enjoy playing these contrasting styles and that you will find the piece beneficial in teaching important musical concepts.—Peter TerryBluffton, Ohio 2016.
