"Tides" calls to comparison the currents of the sea and our own human emotions. The piece is the perfect vehicle for younger groups to refine their ensemble playing skills. Written in a chorale-like setting, the piece challenges the students' abilities to listen and perform with expression. Filled with emotion, "Tides" provides the ingredients necessary for contrast in any concert program.
