Adventure Tale of Neverland

Commissioned by the Rave Group Int'l and Hong Kong Band Directors'Association for the 7th Winter Band Festival 2015, this piece was completed in August of the same year. Ten years before I wrote "Adventure Tale of Professor Alex"(Brain/Bravo Music), setting the exploits of this imaginary character to music. From the same series now comes "Adventure Tale of Neverland" depicting fantasy adventures of the famed Peter Pan.

The piece begins quietly with sound of the Great Bell of Big Ben, after which the main theme is introduced. As with the preceding work, please enjoy imagining Peter Pan's adventures to produce a spectacular musical voyage.
