Wrath of the Waves

Description

Pirates! This multi sectioned rollicking adventure opens with "The Voyage Ahead," moves to "Captain's Orders" before slowing down to the reflective "Sun Off the Bow." "A Gold Tooth Grin" and "Jig on Deck" speed things up again which sets up "Shiver Me Timbers" to take things home. Melody found throughout the ensemble, animated rhythmic figures and shifting time signatures make this fun to play and enjoyable for audiences. Argh! Written for brass choir by David Marlatt. Instrumentation: optional piccolo trumpet; trumpet 1, 2 & 3; B-flat flugelhorn; French horn 1 & 2; trombone 1, 2 & 3; euphonium; tuba; percussion. (3:15)
