This original work for developing bands was composed in January of 2019 when the composer ran a 10K from Port Isabel to Louis Backyard on South Padre Island at the break of day. This composition starts off slowly as the sun rises, alternating between 3/4 and 4/4 time. Students will have multiple opportunities to practice time signature changes, different ostinato rhythms, and dynamic levels as the race unfolds. When young ensembles strive for their best sound and balance, the music truly shines. The metronome markings and articulations, like the steady pounding of a runner's feet, are important to play correctly.
