Inspired by and including the poem High Flight by John Gillespie Magee Jr. and premiered by the legendary Long Beach Municipal Band, this piece evokes the feeling of piloting an airplane - taking off, soaring high, the freedom of movement in three dimensions. The poem brings that sublime feeling to life in words and is the narration underscored by the opening section of the piece. Written for advanced concert band, this thrilling work stretches the limits of the ensemble from gentle woodwind solos to Mach 1 runs along with soaring and powerful brass fanfares full of gripping tension. Perfect for opening or concluding your program, you will leave the audience on the edge of their seats!
