The grandiosity and pomp of the early pioneers of flying machines must have been something to behold! “First Flight” introduces this flying machine with an opening fanfare, followed by take-off and flight. After some fancy aerobics, the plane returns to the ground with a confident and successful landing!

With parts set in comfortable range, bands can focus on using dynamics and phrasing to create the sounds of expectation, drama and soaring that will truly lift this piece off the ground!
