Make Sail! was the command shouted to the crew to ready the ship when conditions were favorable to sail, in the days of the great sailing ships. With happy swashbuckling melodies, the grand orchestral flourishes and colorful splashes of mallet percussion, the composer has captured all the excitement and beauty of the long ago journeys of the tall ships. Band, ahoy!
