From your Smile - Solo for Bb instrumentalist

Composed by Paul Lovatt-Cooper.

With this particular piece I wanted to compose a lovely gentle melody to reflect Jamie. You hear this in the opening theme in the solo euphonium.

Also, with Gary's roots based in Ireland I wanted to include a Celtic feel to the melody. This comes in the second theme from the ensemble followed by the soloist.
After the return of the melody, the music then builds with a change of key with the original theme performed by the ensemble and the soloist soaring above with a countermelody.

The bond between father and son is a unique one and the music concludes with a fragment from
the opening melody line from the soloist as I envisage Gary holding Jamie safely in his arms as he rocks him to sleep.
