This riveting and explosive new work will take you on a journey through Alaskas harsh landscape with the sled dogs running the Iditarod. Known as "the last great race on Earth," the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race stretches over 1,150 miles of Alaskas wild terrain from Anchorage to Nome. This is Soon Hee Newbold at her very best!

The vivid imagery of "little critters" scurrying about at night inspires the melodic lines and creative harmonies used throughout this programmatic work. Beginning soft and mischievous, the music builds as new critters join the fun in a playful dialogue. The harmonic language moves between moments of pleasant consonance and slight dissonance (because as we all know, some people love little critters and some people are terrified of them!). A highly imaginative, playable work! (Grade 1, Dur 2:15)
