Composed by Gus Shoemaker. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 70 pages. Gus Shoemaker #4602787. Published by Gus Shoemaker (A0.916361).

Opening with a lyrical flute solo with flowing interjections from other woodwinds, this piece, after a slow introduction, bursts into a fast-paced theme in the low voices.  A staccato theme then segues into the original theme presented by the solo flute.  A slow, expressive section featuring multiple soloists follows.  The piece is brought to an exhilarating conclusion with presto percussion and flourishing woodwinds over huge chordal hits.  Medium- to advanced-intermediate in difficulty while still exciting and challenging, this piece should be playable by many high school concert bands or community bands.
