I just found this piece to be really beautiful despite not much percussion. Composer Notes: With soaring melodies and chorale-like moments, this original work is an affirmation of the human spirit. Through performance of this piece, your band will develop their musicality through a combination of dynamic and rhythmic elements. The band plays together throughout, so it's a natural for building important listening skills for balance and blend. It's a lovely, expressive piece that offers moments of real strength.
