Grade 2

Duration: 6:25

This is a show celebrating the everyday heroes in our lives, the people who inspire us.  We start out in "Small Town, U.S.A.", which includes some flowing woodwind interludes.  Then "Life Gets Chaotic", full of syncopation and dissonance representing our busy and chaotic everyday lives.  We also build tension with some driving percussion.  Suddenly, "Tragedy" strikes our daily lives and we mourn for our heroes and loved ones. This mournful ballad can also feature some soloists.  Finally, we celebrate our "Everyday Heroes" with the melody from "Simple Gifts".  This finale begins quietly with reflection and then builds to an exciting conclusion and tribute to our heroes.  This show is meant to be uplifting and inspiring!
