Descriptive and adventuresome, James Curnow's A Day in Space is the perfect performance piece for the modern age.

The inspiring opening brings the excitement of a momentous event to your concert stage. The thrilling lift-off carries the listener high above the planet into Earth-orbit where magnificent views, a space-walk, the re-entry and finally the celebration of a job well-done bring this fanciful excursion to a rousing climax.

This piece provides wonderful possibilities for cross-curricular teaching with the science department.
Galvanizing!
