Today, Cheyenne remains a vibrant community with the ongoing spirit of the old west. An original work reminiscent of western movie themes, it is set in a traditional ABA overture form. Broad and bold with the spirit of the west. (3:00)SKU: AL43105 -

Climb the Mountains Tall
Inspired by “The Dream,” a poem by Darren Clayton, this work reflects the spirit of adventure necessary to journey to new places and new experiences. After a bold introduction, the flutes, oboe, and bells present a heroic melody with supporting roles provided by the baritone and snare drum. The full band then joins in and expands on the theme, energy building all the while. We journey briefly through a minor key and a slower, more contemplative section. With a transition back to the main theme, and a change of key, we boldly approach the exciting conclusion of our travels. (3:15)SKU: AL37789 -
