When I was first approached about this commission, the request was clear:
“We want a showstopper.”

Challenge accepted.

Gloriam is a blazing-fast, multi-meter concert work commissioned by the University of Detroit Jesuit High School and Academy Symphonic Band and their director, Christopher Charboneau. The piece is dedicated to Fr. Karl Kiser, S.J., who served as the school’s President from 2002–2016. It was written to honor his legacy, his leadership, and the spirit of excellence he helped inspire in generations of students and musicians.

Right from the downbeat, this piece comes out swinging. With rapid meter changes, propulsive rhythms, and intense technical demands, Gloriam is designed to push your ensemble—and your audience—into high gear. Think of it as part fanfare, part thrill ride, and part musical fireworks show.

While the technical difficulty makes it a great fit for advanced high school or university-level groups, the musical payoff is just as important: soaring melodies, layered textures, and percussion that doesn’t just support the band—it drives it like a heartbeat on fire.

There’s no slow middle section. No soft fade-out. Just raw energy, musical precision, and a lot of notes flying very fast in very exciting directions.
Use it as an opener. Use it as a closer. Use it when you want your audience to sit up straight and really pay attention.

Because Gloriam doesn’t whisper.

It SINGS.
