This
programmatic work depicts
our superhero Daring Dog,
as he goes on a journey
to conquer the villain.
Daring Dog is a
superhero, only... not
everyone knows it yet. We
meet Daring Dog and his
sidekick at m. 15 in the
beginning section. At m.
24, we hear as his mother
gives him a stern lecture
to stop messing around
and be more serious.
Daring Dog tries to
explain how he has saved
the world numerous times
at m. 32. At m. 42, he
decides he must do what
is necessary to defeat
the villain, despite what
his mother thinks, and
begins planning. At m.
52, we can hear him
running in the snare
drum, and the villain
approaches. Barking and
growling (flutter tongue
in flute, and growling in
brass), at m.78 the fight
is on. Measure 82 reveals
a huge terrible monster,
and Daring Dog is
terrified. He sticks out
his sword with his eyes
closed, and *POOF!* the
monster evaporates. (It
was probably imaginary
the whole time.) The end
section is a triumphant
celebration that Daring
Dog has, indeed, saved
the world again! Daring
Dog is a fun piece for
all ages! Difficult
enough to be a wonderful
recruitment piece, and
easy enough to be
playable by young bands,
this piece can truly span
all levels. Actors might
also depict the story
while the band plays for
even more fun.
