The longing opening statements and animated main theme transition into a soloistic, lonesome melodic section that offers a haunting conversation amongst several key instruments. An energetic pursuit and capture of prey is depicted by several percussion instruments, and is followed by a return to the original theme with a powerful finish. Performers will enjoy working on this mixed-meter adventure, which can easily be incorporated into your project-based learning opportunities.
