Mama Sea Turtle - Hoefle

The first movement in "Water Tales, A Suite for Band," this lyrical work is a beautiful depiction of a sea turtle departing the beach after laying her eggs in the sand. This piece in time is a great opportunity for your students to work on slurs and phrasing while they learn about these amazing, endangered water creatures. This first installment of this marine-based suite has great potential for themed concerts and cross-curricular activities!
