Listen along with the score here: (54) Eagle Wings, by Dr. Daniel Thrower, for Brass Quintet & Percussion - YouTube
“Fly, fight, win!” The American bald eagle! The Air Force logo, with its stylized eagle wings! And of course, the awe-inspiring aircraft F-15 Eagle. During the compositional process, images of the F-15 made this work a rousing soundtrack for an imaginary three-minute awesome airpower video!
The difficulty level is advanced, with little rest for the trumpets and horn. However, it is short enough to be playable in most any concert or recital setting. It is a rousing crowd-pleaser, especially with the proper introduction.
