Eureka!
Tell a story of invention, using the lightbulb as a visual catalyst (maybe even a prop?). Features original music in several styles, including ragtime, chorale, and contemporary classical. A short and sweet show for growing bands, with no battery percussion required.
- Inception - build up to the first "light bulb moment"
- Creation - an energetic ragtime features plenty of opportunities to show off the wind ensemble
- Change the World - a brief interlude leads to a finale of epic proportions
Growth Series
Originally commissioned by the Jay County High School Band, Kelly Smeltzer, director.
