Earthscape (Score & Parts) (Eighth Note Publications) David Marlatt

Earthscape is a lyrical piece inspired by the view of our planet from space. In the silent, black vacuum of space exists this bright blue planet, slowly rotating, giving astronauts a serene and breathtaking view of the only source of life in our solar system. This work, for 6 trumpets, features the trumpet ensemble in a peaceful mood and offers the opportunity for some soloistic playing by the flugel horn player.
