Composed by Benjamin Faugstad and finalized in early 2025, Octavius debuted at the 2025 band tour concert of Bethany Lutheran College's concert band (joined by members of the Mt. Olive Lutheran Church and School Middle School band). Stripped down to a piano track, Faugstad wrote the piece at a median level for both the students of the college and the middle school to learn for the first time.
Named after Faugstad's godson, the earworm that is Octavius will live in the walls of Bethany buildings for many years to come. Enjoy Octavius!
