Lullaby to the Moon (Brian Balmages) for String Orchestra

Many fictional works portray the moon as a living being, alone in space looking at the Earth. This lullaby honors this “living moon,” portraying various emotions including the loneliness of seeing us from space. It also includes moments of comfort as the moon proudly watches over us, much as a parent watches over a child. Simply stunning, whether you have a grade 2 or a grade 6 ensemble. (4:15)

Grade: 2
