Primal Echoes
Listen to the show
About the show
Explore the relationship between animals and Mother Nature. Let your students unleash their wild side. Make use of additional world percussion and sound effects to complete the effect.
- Part 1 - "Of the Earth": marimbas, drums, and a woodwind soloist introduce the main theme with a tribal feel before the full ensemble enters. Melodic figures trade back-and-forth between different sections.
- Part 2 - "Sea and Sky": textures weave in and out of each other in this musical representation of the animals of the air and sea.
- Part 3 - "Primal Fury": the band unleashes the beast within in this percussion driven finale.
Alternate themes: Welcome to the Jungle, The Beast Within
Originally commissioned by the Monroe Central High School, Parker City, IN. Eric Bowman, director..
