Exultation is a short and energetic concert opener that is similar to a palindrome. A fanfare opens the work, juxtaposing 3/4 and 6/8, reminiscent of Latin-American music. The main theme is first heard on the euphonium, horns and saxophones which is very bluesy. The contrasting second theme is short and spikey and played by the bass instruments of the band. A lyric melody emerges as the rest of the orchestra joins in. The second theme reappears which leads back to the ‘blues’ melody, which leads back to the opening fanfare. Palindromic!

Exultation (Jubel) ist ein kurzes, rhythmisch und stilistisch abwechslungsreiches Eröffnungsstück, das in seiner Form einem Palindrom ähnelt: Nach einer Fanfare in einem fast lateinamerikanischen Stil erscheint ein "bluesiges“ Hauptthema, das nach einer kurzen Überleitung zu einem zweiten Staccato-Thema führt. Es folgt ein lyrisches Thema, sodann geht es rückwärts wieder zum Stacccato-Thema und dann über die "Bluesmelodie“ zurück zur Eröffnungsfanfare und damit zum Anfang und Ende zugleich!

Exultation est une oeuvre courte, rythmée et stylistiquement variée. Sa structure est b tie comme un palindrome, autrement dit, comme une forme particulière d’inversion. L’oeuvre débute avec une fanfare aux accents latino-américains laquelle succèdent un thème « bluesy », une courte transition, un second thème staccato et une mélodie lyrique. Puis le fil s’enroule pour revenir au début. Musique ou symétrie ? Telle est la question.

Exultation è un breve brano di apertura che offre diversit ritmiche e stilistiche e che nella sua forma ricorda un palindromo. Dopo una fanfara in stile latino-americano, appare il tema principale eseguito dagli eufoni, dai corni e dai sax, caratterizzato da accenti di blues che accompagna ad un seconda tema in staccato. Segue un tema lirico, prima di tornare nuovamente al tema in staccato e, attraverso una “melodia blues”, nuovamente alla fanfara di apertura e alla fine del brano.
