Program Notes
Deep Blue is a grade 3 band work that is inspired by the music of ambient video games like Journey, ABZU, Flow, and more. The piece is meant to portray this calm and serene feeling of swimming somewhere underwater, watching the marine life passing you by.
This work is commissioned by the Let's Play consortium with composers Josh Trentadue, Harrison J. Collins, and Katahj Copley.
