At the Edge of the Sea—Kirk Vogel. This energetic

seventh harmonies create a lovely palette of sound,
and the variety of rhythms in 3/4 create excitement
and plenty of teaching opportunities.

Shakespeare Meets Godzilla (The Good

inventive and entertaining piece is a mash-up of
two entirely different music styles - Renaissance
music and classic horror music. Danger is afoot!

stop an enormous creature from destroying his
Globe Theatre. As in an epic film score, the music
underpins and adds drama to the heroic tale.

between the two music styles give this piece
the colorful sound and intensity of a much more
advanced piece.
