Velocity is an exciting mixed-meter piece from the pen of Larry Neeck. Striking sonorities and driving rhythms characterize this fast-paced romp. Splashes of percussion color and alternating sonorous and jagged melodies and harmonies in the winds sustain interest and intensity throughout the work. With a "driving intensity" from start to finish, "Velocity" is the perfect opener, closer, or change-of-pace for your next concert.
