Level: Open Class Winds

The journey of climbing a mountain can be very rewarding but also very dangerous. The Summit takes the audience on that journey from the elation and excitement of the journey's beginning, to the terrifying despair after surviving an avalanche, to the triumphant jubilation of finally reaching the peak. Using the pieces "Slalom" by Carter Pann, "Vesuvius" by Frank Tichelli, and "Kingfishers Catch Fire" by John Mackey, the journey of this show will be one to remember!
