tone poem written for myself and the Murray State University Symphonic Wind Ensemble and was premiered in a special performance in Carnegie Hall on March 29 of 2005. \u00a0This dramatic work captures the beauty and majesty of the open  sea as well as its darker and more ominous mood during a ferocious storm. \u00a0The work carries the listener on a journey through calm and tempest and ends with a grandiose climax that rivals any of the great programmatic composers of this or any era. \u00a0The wind ensemble and I thoroughly enjoyed the preparation and performance of this masterful work as did the exhilarated crowd in Carnegie Hall that called us back three times. \u00a0\u201cSong of the Sea\u201d deserves to be on all collegiate and (technically proficient) high school band  programs throughout the world.\u00a0It is a masterpiece for wind band.<\/span><\/blockquote><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section
