Imani—Sean O'Loughlin. Imani, which
means faith, is the seventh day of
Kwanzaa, the African and African-American
celebration of family and culture. This
challenging and colorful piece rises from
its quiet chant-like opening (involving part
of the band singing the "Imani" tune) to a
sonorous major climax at measure 51. The
faster section that follows makes brilliant
use of an enlarged percussion section that
includes a number of assorted instruments
(Log drums, Congas, Claves, et. al.) This
is a terrific multicultural selection that will
have many uses for holiday programs and
contest performances.
