No better time to add to your concert programme a work that celebrates the incredible Apollo 11 mission that sent men to the Moon in 1969.
Drew's work is a programmatic depiction of NASA's launch, three day journey and historic landing in a celebration of the American spirit.
Man on the Moon
The piece begins with a musical statement depicting President Kennedy's words "…before the decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth"before we witness the countdown and the violent and fiery launch of the Saturn V rocket.
The incredible experience of the peaceful weightlessness of space segues into the conclusion as Neil Armstrong descends the ladder from the lunar module to the Moon's surface.
