A Youngstars Overture
Fritz Neuboeck wrote “Checkpoint” (A »Youngstars« Overture) for an Austrian Youth Band Competition. Neuboeck (*1965) is an Austrian composer, who also works as conductor and music school leader. His professional work strongly influences his compositions, as he writes with a practical attitude. His modern, popular style appeals to young musicians. The title “Checkpoint” (A »Youngstars« Overture) describes the situation, in which young musicians find themselves during a competition: After a long and intensive period of rehearsing and preparing they have to proof their skills and show the best performance in one specific moment. The piece begins with a strong introduction, blending into an allegro section full of energy and vitality. An emotional middle part, including a beautiful trumpet solo, stands for the sensitive, thoughtful side of adolescence. The music then recalls sounds of the beginning before “Checkpoint” reaches its great finale.
