Description:
Written as a metaphor for the hardship and isolation caused by the 2020 pandemic, this dramatic tone poem is a testament to courage and the undaunted nature of the human spirit. The piece follows the voyage of a ship and its crew to the open sea and into a devastating storm resulting in the separation of the crew and its ultimate reunion. The memorable melodies and stirring harmonies are sure to peak your students' imaginations while a variety of key and time signatures will challenge every section of the advanced string orchestra. A percussion part has been included to add touches of nautical color, resulting in an emotional, picturesque voyage with a cinematic flair. Check out Voyagers We, Undaunted by Richard Meyer! (6:40)
