Joan of Arc (The Journey Begins...) | Grade 1
Randall Standridge Music Publications
Joan of Arc is a programmatic work that tells the story of its namesake. Joan of Arc represents tenacity, strength, and a confident woman with a plan. The opening of this piece depicts a vision, followed by the sounds of the blacksmith manufacturing weaponry as villagers prepare for battle. All sections interact with the melody and the hearty percussion section gets to explore a variety of auxiliary instruments. This piece is dedicated to all strong young women with big ideas. This is an advanced grade 1.
