Pride of Granbury 2022 Marching Production entitled "Frida"

Frida is a musical tribute to one of the most enigmatic and ingenious artists of the 20th Century. Famous for her self-portraits, unflinching realism, unconventional beauty, and celebration of Mexican heritage, Frida Kahlo’s life and art works continue to inspire art and pop culture around the world today.
Mvt. 1: "Introduction of Frida, The" introduces Frida Kahlo, the artist and the woman. A lyrical flute solo evolves into a strong but tumultuous moment with the full ensemble, representing her dual qualities of exposed vulnerability and unshakable strength.
Mvt. 2: "Two Fridas, The" takes its title from one of Frida Kahlo’s most famous self-portraits. This ballad, like the painting, represents her emotional pain and the feeling of herself splitting into two selves-the before Frida, and the after Frida-following her separation and divorce from her famous artist husband Diego Rivera.
Mvt. 3: "Divorce From Diego" heavily features percussion, with the striking mallets and sticks of the instruments representing the tumult and violence within Kahlo and Rivera’s doomed marriage.
Mvt. 4: "Frida" reaffirms the power, strength, and beauty of Frida Kahlo, the woman and the artist. The themes push forward and upward toward a thrilling conclusion.
