Imagine you were a member of the crew on those early ships of exploration leaving Europe in the 15th century to sail to America. Feelings of anticipation and apprehension would give way to feelings of adventure and joy! After a lyrical opening we are introduced to the main theme. The journey to the West was not without danger, and Compass Points West! by Carmen Gassi will take your young players on a musical adventure ending in triumph!
