Adventures in Wonderland

Commissioned by the American Bandmasters Association IDEA Consortium

Concert band, Grade 5. Approximately 20 minutes. 
​
Adventures in Wonderland follows Alice on her journey through Lewis Carroll's iconic book. Each movement explores Alice's progression through various scenes:

1. Down the Rabbit Hole -- We meet Alice and the White Rabbit. Alice falls down the hole, grows to nine feet high, and cries a pool of tears.
2. The Garden & the Cheshire Cat — Alice finally enters the beautiful garden and meets the mysterious Cheshire Cat.
3. A Mad Tea Party -- Alice sits down at a "tea for too" party where a Mad Hatter recites "Twinkle twinkle little bat."​
4. Off With Her Head! -- Alice confronts the Red Queen and her procession of marching playing cards.
