Celebration Loops serves as the final (grade 4) work for Ben MacDonald's method book Reed Revolution: A Fundamental Approach to Reed Quintet.


The music is jovial and light, taking influence from minimalism and dance forms. Many rhythmic motives, doublings, and articulations were selected to give the musicians the opportunity to communicate in real-time across the ensemble. Ultimately, the work is a celebration of each musicians' growth and the ensemble's developing maturity.
