Force of Nature (Brian Balmages) for String Orchestra

Written to celebrate both the power and beauty of nature, Force of Nature juxtaposes intensely rhythmic elements with broad, lyrical lines. Sustained phrases suggest those awe-inspiring locations that can take one's breath away, yet the rhythmic underscore is a constant reminder of nature's sheer power. A musical whirlwind by Brian Balmages! (2:10)
