£74.99Soaring! - David Shaffer
Soaring is a mode of flight in which height is gained slowly by using air that is moving upwards. Written for music educator's Randy Heuvelman's 30 years of service to the Woodland (Illinois) School District, Soaring paints a music portrait of dedication, compassion and intensity, all aspects of this educator's tenure. A slower middle section alternating between choirs of woodwinds and brass paints a serene portrait with lush harmonies and soaring countermelodies. The extensive percussion scoring utilizes timbres that add and complement the completed musical setting. Soaring is truly one of David's best works
