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!
This outstanding pair of contrasting movements moves from a plaintive and pleading Larghetto to an Allegro with all the cheer and sparkle one can imagine. An exceptional opportunity to work on the music of Handel while providing a wealth of opportunities for musical development! (5:15)
This brilliant march in grand concert style works beautifully for strings! A powerful melodic line combines with strong rhythms and moving harmonic shifts as the piece unfolds. After a wonderful exchange of the opening themes, the piece moves into an energetic coda with a riveting ending. A perfect performance piece at concert or festival as well as an ideal change of pace for any program! (2:00)
