The Journey for Percussion Ensemble is for 8 percussionist. Written for early advanced High School or early college groups, the piece tells a story about taking a journey from light to dark, moving from good times and bad, and coming out a better person for it. The piece starts off with a quiet waltz, lullaby-esque, providing a tonal anchor and tranquility. As it moves into the next section, we hear the first main melodic idea. While still maintaining this idea of calm and ambient energy, the main theme should be reflective of an old spaghetti western film. The vibraphonist should play loud and proud.When the piece moves into the heavier 6/8 section, the battery should be sensitive to the melodic instruments. There should be a quiet forward energy weaving through the entire piece.
