Program Notes
This energetic work by Joseph Earp is wildly infectious. This light and lively musical statement, inspired by the sandhill cranes of Monte Vista, Colorado, is sure to make all want to dance. The tubas and low woodwinds will particularly enjoy performing their opening groove as it sets the tone for the great music to come.
