Discover the Wild

Composed in the form of a three-part orchestral overture, this powerful work opens with the horn section stating the main theme, which is based on the interval of a perfect fourth. A beautiful and lyrical middle theme creates a mesmerizing and calming effect before the opening theme and faster pace makes a return for the dramatic finish. Concisely scored with an intriguing variety of textures, this is an impressive work for contest or festival. Dur: 4:40 (Grade 4)
