The Pacific ocean with its pounding waves, free flowing groove and sizzle on the sand provide the backdrop for Gabriella Smith鈥檚 Tumblebird Contrails. Keening gulls and playful ravens overhead, and a hallucinatory jet trail painting pictures across the sky mirror in the ebb and flow of the sea in this impressionistic musical portrait.

大象传媒 NOW鈥檚 very own Principal Trombonist, Donal Bannister steps out of the orchestra and into the solo spotlight in a world premiere by Simon Wills, written specially for Donal, before Principal Conductor Ryan Bancroft continues his exploration into the works of Charles Ives with 大象传媒 NOW, this time with his First Symphony. Meditative melodies contrast with energetic themes and hymn-like tunes meld with soaring lyricism in this encapsulatingly Romantic symphony.
