Work Overview
Search for Planet X is a musical romp in space in search of a hypothetical planet out there in the dark reaches of the solar system. This piece begins with a mysterious mood of sustained strings, a horn solo and magical percussion befoe it quickly transitions at an adventurous pace. With woodwind flourishes, muted trumpets and an exciting rhythmic accompaniment- if anyone is going to find this Planet X, it's going to be your orchestra!
