Lost at Sea

Lost at Sea is a harrowing tale of a ship setting sail into the ocean blue only to come face-to-face with a terrorizing storm!  The show follows the ship from calmly setting-sail from the harbor, enjoying the freedom of the ocean, to hitting storm waters and almost capsizing, to its triumphant return to port to tell tales of the chilling adventure.  

Priding ourselves on keeping as much of the original integrity of Claude Debussy's timeless classic,"La Mer", this show is a great fit for ensembles looking to showcase their woodwind sections and soloists.  On top of great woodwind moments, the show also features great moments for the brass as well as an extended percussion feature in the 3rd segment.
