About this arrangement

Chamber Ensemble, Piccolo SKU: HL.228959 For Piccolo and Piano Full Set. Composed by Michael Daugherty. Peermusic Classical. Classical, Contest, Festival. 24 pages. Duration 510 seconds. Hal Leonard #62020-308. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.228959). UPC: 680160431854. 9x12 inches.(2000)Commissioned by the National Flute Association, The High and the Mighty has become a staple of the piccolo repertoire. The work is inspired by the years following World War II in America (1945-1961), when air travel was considered luxurious and glamorous. The work is in two movements - the first features a soaring, lyrical tune that is flutter-tongued; the second begins with an angular cadenza that is followed by a robust high-altitude bossa nova.
