Overture Concertante werd geschreven in opdracht van de fanfare St.Joseph uit Meers in Limburg. Het is een spontaan en dynamisch muziekstuk. Het werk bevat veel interessante slagwerkpassages waaronder een xylofoon solo en schilderachtige marimba- en klokkenspelpartijen. Het middendeel bevat een bugelsolo die bestaat uit een steeds terugkerend thema dat iedere volgende keer een tel in de maat verschuift. Dit thema is zeer 'dolce' en voegt zich mooi in de transparante begeleiding. Verder wisselen overweldigende gedeelten met dramatische akkoorden zich af met motorisch stuwende passages.Het werk sluit af met een tot een climax voerend coda.
