From Symphony No. 2. Composed by Kimberly Archer. Score only. Duration 3:30. Published by C. Alan Publications (CN.18251).Extracted from Archer's "Symphony No. 2," "Humoresque" is a playful scherzo-like march filled with rhythmic excitement that will get your toe tapping. Don't get tripped up by all the meter changes though!
Extracted from "Symphony No. 2," "Humoreque" was originally labeled as a march. It is dedicated to Andy Waggoner, my first composition teacher in graduate school. By form it is a march, but by style, a scherzo. It is intended to be playful and humorous (reflective of our personal relationship), but also makes use of several of the concepts and skills he taught me, including how to use octatonic collections. - Kim Archer.
