Courage and Faith
Courage and Faith - Katie O'Hara LaBrie
Inspired by the words of Saint Francis de Sales, Courage and Faith by Katie O’Hara LaBrie is a compelling Grade 3 work that explores resilience, reflection, and renewal. The music moves between bold, energetic passages and lyrical moments of introspection, capturing the experience of navigating life’s challenges with strength and purpose.
An opening horn call introduces a theme of growing courage, while contrasting sections offer space for reflection before building toward a confident and uplifting conclusion. Thoughtful and expressive, Courage and Faith provides ensembles with opportunities to develop contrast, phrasing, and musical storytelling in a meaningful concert setting.
