Twelve Seconds to the Moon

Twelve Seconds to the Moon is a celebration of man’s conquest of the sky and the heavens above. While the Wright Brothers’ first manned flight lasted a mere twelve seconds, astronauts were soon walking the surface of the moon. Robert W. Smith’s spectacular sonic adventure stretches the envelope with some of the most exotic and adventurous scoring for percussion and winds ever achieved. Searing and blistering musical lines merge with explosive percussion to make this one of the most sensational works for wind ensemble or concert band in concert band literature today. (12:06)
