JOE MARTA MUSICIAN, COMPOSER, & ARRANGER
Soar!
A Note from the Composer:
Soar! is the story of a young eagle learning to fly for the first time. In the beginning, there is a majestic trumpet solo, accompanied by a full array of winds, depicting the awakening of the morning sun and the valley where the eagle lives. As the piece enters a faster section, featuring the clarinet, a new lively energy takes over. There are softer sections, and loud, triumphant sections, all symbolic of the eagles first flight. |
