Description:
Based on such TV mini-series’ as Band of Brothers and The Pacific, this work for eight horns is dedicated to all of those who have fought, endured, or have been affected by war. Divided into four sections, section one presents the “Main Theme”, a reflective introduction into section two, which is entitled “Currahee”. This section portrays the naivety, innocence, and excitement at the training grounds before war. Section three is a bridge into the “War Theme” of section four. It features a segment where chaos erupts with sounds of gunshot heard in the distance.
