Pirates on the
high seas come to life in
this programmatic work
for young band by Rob
Romeyn! Our adventure
begins with the ominous
sight of the pirate ship
as it appears from behind
an island. Music builds
and the story unfolds,
first rhythmically and
aggressively, and then
calming. A beautifully
lyric middle section
reminiscent of a sea
chantey will help insure
that this be a favorite
for concert and festival
use. Memorable themes and
contrasting styles will
appeal to performers and
audiences alike. Ahoy,
Matey!

This series is designed
for middle school and
junior high school bands,
as well as high school

limited experience.
Command Series
publications have a
slightly larger
instrumentation than the
Rising Band Series, and
are typically of larger
scope, duration, and
musical content.
