Storm
Soon Hee Newbold

Storm is an exciting piece composed by Soon Hee Newbold. This selection engages the audience from the first chord, which leads the listener on an intense musical journey.  “Storm”, a single word, easily awakens vivid and powerful imagery of a raging storm or ancient soldiers marching into battle. This charismatic work depicts ferocious ancient battle scenes or an intense weather system. The powerful rhythmic groove contrasted with a lyrical melody brings the storm to life, or the call for the battle to begin. This composition is a great way to develop young players' connection to musical interpretations.
