The Final Frontier

Mars, our nearest planetary neighbor, has captured the imagination of astronomers, poets, and artists for centuries. Now scientists predict that the first humans will set foot on the Red Planet in the year 2030.In this original piece, composer David Martyn gives beginning bands a vehicle for expressing the majesty and mystery of our venture into the final frontier. The music evokes the cinematic grandeur of the great science fiction soundtracks from both the big and small screens. An excellent teaching vehicle for a wealth of fundamentals, and a sure-fire crowd pleaser for a band's first concert.
