March Of The Aliens

March of the Aliens is a composition that should be approached with a sense of fun. The mood changes can depict various characters if one wants to add to the performance visually. The use of chromatics gives the piece an 'eerie' feeling that suggests the possible invasion by aliens from another world. A wonderful novelty selection!
