About Galop!
Galop!
By Stephanie Plautz (ASCAP)
As a horse taking a nice, slow run, Galop! showcases a forward momentum that we all have!
"Galop!" is an exhilarating band piece designed to introduce young musicians to the excitement of performing. With its brisk tempo and lively rhythms, this composition captures the joy of musical expression and moving freely like a jogging horse. Woodwinds and brass performers will be able to strengthen their harmonic independence while performing similar rhythms.
