Starbound Artemis - Joshua Idio

Starbound Artemis is an exciting depiction of a spaceship being prepared for take-off. In musical cinematic fashion, this work for young band follows the same steps of a typical rocket launch sequence, from transporting the vessel to the launchpad, powering up and fueling the machine, to the final flight tests, and then lift-off. Using simple, interchanging harmonies from both the B-flat major and minor keys, the music gives the work a steady surge of tension, seriousness, and power, as astronauts and technicians might feel as they prepare to launch a rocket into space.
