Program Notes
Rarely does a blockbuster movie include a soundtrack that becomes such an important element of the film itself. With songs from character Peter Quill's “Awesome Mix”, here is a dynamic medley for band that features the Marvel Studios Fanfare, Hooked on a Feeling, Come and Get Your Love, Groot Cocoon (lyric theme from the score), Cherry Bomb, and Ain't No Mountain High Enough.
