Description:

    “You're waiting for a train, a train that will take you far away, you know where you hope this train will take you, but you can't be sure.” This sophisticated production uses the classic imagery of a train and a suitcase as an inspiration.  With a wide array of subtle textures and styles for winds and percussion and attention to musical clarity, this show is guaranteed to raise the maturity level of your ensemble. 

   The increasing tempo of a train gaining momentum, the clear path of a railroad track, luggage in hand... The Traveler has so much room for visual interpretation and opportunity to paint a clear thematic picture.

    This show was originally commissioned by the Los Alamitos HS marching band in the fall of 2010 and was released for the 2012 indoor season as a custom version adapted for indoor percussion.
