£63.50Himmelstuperne (Skydivers) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Strand, Oyvind
This march was composed in the early Spring of 1990 after being inspired by the local skydivers practicing their hobby at Geiteryggen Airfield in Skien, Norway. Particularly bold and spectacular I found those diving in free fall for about half a minute before unfolding their parachutes just before, so it seemed, hitting the ground.In my view they are the real Skydivers, but the march is a homage to all who practice this thrilling activity and to their courage and skills.- Oyvind StrandDuration: 3.30
