Take a historical journey into the heart of the continent along the powerful St. Lawrence River as the early French explorers did. The immensity and beauty of this historic river is captured in bold brass fanfares. Haunting woodwind themes encapsulate the relentless exploration of the New World, and the lush, melodic slow section presents many opportunities for lyrical playing. Ideal for bands of moderate experience, this programmatic composition is perfect for contest, festival and concert performance.
