Off in the distance you hear the storm begin, the lightning strike, the thunder roar and then Storm Chaser takes off to dramatically depict a terrible storm! Educator and composer Kevin Mixon gives us a daring and aggressive new piece that includes the sounds of finger snapping as raindrops and thunder. The melody is angular and strong, which the students will love and play brilliantly in a contest or festival setting.

- Limited keys and rhythms - only simple 8th note patterns
- Limited independence of parts
- Playable after limited study time
- First position and natural bowings
- Piano for rehearsal and reinforcement
