The Native American Cree tribe refer to the aurora borealis (or “northern lights”) as the “Dance of the Spirits.” Using a variety of unusual sounds and effects, quickly changing textures and surprises, Michael Sweeney has created a musical impression of this phenomenon's stunning beauty and unpredictable nature. An exciting and unique addition to the young band repertoire, this will be enjoyable to rehearse and perform. (Grade 2.5) Dur: c. 5:30.
