”What Good Shall I Do This Day?” Every morning Benjamin Franklin asked himself this simple question, as a virtuous routine. I found this quote while reading on the daily habits of great men and after I had started to compose the piece already. I instantly felt that this sentence would make a perfect title. The vision I had first was a joyous piece, full of benevolent energy and the kind of mood you feel when you wake up well rested, have a nice breakfast and begin your day with enthusiasm, deciding what you aim to achieve by the end of the day. 

Everyone can make this question one’s own. I believe it is fundamentally universal. Not only was Benjamin Franklin one of the Founding Fathers of the U.S.A. but also a man who constantly wanted and worked to improve himself. In other words, he can be an inspiration for us all to try to become better individuals and to accomplish great things. One step after another, making a difference thanks to constant effort, with courage and patience.

The music of the piece isn’t programmatic in nature. There are three united movements, almost permanently driven by a vigorous rhythmic pulse. The piece begins with a dynamic, lively mood, and then moves to a shining theme both fanfare-like and swinging. The music ends with a joyful dancing pace before it concludes triumphantly.
