This beautiful ballad is a wonderful example of Ed Huckeby’s lyrical writing style. The masterful orchestration serves to enhance the flowing melodic lines and colorfully unique harmonies. A sensitive alto saxophone solo in the middle section provides a great opportunity to highlight your soloist or sax section. Anthem For Peace also provides an opportunity to make a subtle cultural and social declaration for peace at your next festival or concert performance. Gorgeous!
