Deadline - Concert Band

Deadline evokes the extreme tension and stress inherent in working against the clock. Through the piece’s insistent, driving rhythms, the listener experiences the unyielding intensity and ever-increasing anxiety. The unrelieved pressure sustains through all else, whether it leaps to the forefront in a rush of adrenaline or recedes to the background where it can be temporarily ignored, but never forgotten. No matter what diversions or distractions appear, the unforgiving deadline is inescapable, relentlessly driving forward with no chance of resolution until ... time’s up!
