To Soar with Eagles

迈克尔-斯威尼（Michael Sweeney）在这首动感十足的多风格乐队序曲中，以鲜明的打击乐、铜管乐器的扇形奏鸣和木管乐器的旋转效果开场。随后是快速的节奏和长时间的铺垫，使用了非传统的和声和重迭的声音层次，最后以整个乐队雄伟高亢的陈述达到高潮。中段较慢，长笛独奏，伴以丰富的音色和对位。在打击乐部分的带动下，快节奏再次出现，随后反复出现之前的主题，最后曲子圆满结束。这首曲子变化多样，节奏明快，是参加比赛或音乐节的最佳选择。长度5:20

原文简介:
In this dynamic multi-style overture for band, Michael Sweeney opens with stark percussive hits, brass fanfares, and swirling woodwind effects. A fast tempo and long build follows, using non-traditional harmonies and overlapping layers of sound, climaxing with a majestic, soaring statement by the entire ensemble. The slower middle section features a solo flute accompanied by rich sonorities and counterlines. The fast tempo returns initiated by the percussion section and then recurring earlier themes as the pieces drives to a satisfying finish. With variety and pacing, this is a perfect choice for contest or festival. Dur: 5:20
