Description
This programmatic piece uses contrasting sections to depict a journey from our galaxy to the neighboring Andromeda galaxy. The beginning musically builds up to the exciting launch. The middle section depicts the peaceful emptiness of the intergalactic space between the two galaxies, while the closing section sees the return of the main theme and builds to an exciting conclusion. A marimba 2 part in treble clef has been included for those who prefer it.
