Volatus - Brian Beck
From the Latin word for flight, "Volatus" captures the art of soaring above the clouds. The higher one climbs, the more there is to see. Lift-off begins with stately brass motives and sparkling percussion, then it is up, up, and away with woodwind flourishes. With angular harmonies, driving rhythms in mixed meters, and static percussive effects, this piece has something for everyone to enjoy. (2:40)

Mark Williams also offers some creative alternatives to achieve the cannon sounds. Close your next concert with this all-time classic!
