This intense and driving work features propulsive rhythms and aggressive percussion, combined with spirited melodic themes, all of which provide a stunning variety of color and intensity. The contrasting middle section, with its soaring melody, provides a lyrical and sonorous contrast to the hard-driving nature of the rest of the piece. Perfect for concert or contest, "Rattle the Cage" will showcase your entire band with intensity and enthusiasm!
