MakeMusic Symphonic Band
Grade 3
Among the Clouds is a musical journey into the minds of lucid dreamers as they drift off to sleep and wake up in a dream where they can fly at will. A slow, enchanting opening gives way to an energetic theme with an engaging rhythmic pulse as the dreamer takes to the skies! An intriguing work by Brian Balmages!
About ColorFlex
Conductors no longer need to choose between function and texture! Ensembles with instrumentation challenges still have numerous options to cover all parts, yet orchestration is elevated significantly to be faithful to the composer's original intent. Musicians have more opportunities to rest, and timbre once again becomes a central element of each work. So go ahead and have the best of both worlds: flexible and colorful.

I was (mostly) the only F-horn, and holy shamolies this went hard, all the bass were behind me, so after the F-horns and trumpets join together, the bass overpowered the band, and this was just ear candy 😎
My band and I played this and we got 1st out of eight bands!! We also got overall concert band!! I love this piece ❤
Just finished playing this song for LGPE, we got straight 1s!
