Here's a short orchestral cue I wrote recently. I believe it would do nicely for film. The title came about because in my mind, and my friend's, the choral beginning represents the sun rising in the morning. Then, we imagined farmers working out in the fields (the guitar section and the short fiddle/violin section). While working, a crisis arises, and our "unexpected heroes" draw swords from hidden sheaths (indicated by the trumpet call which 'rescues' the rest of the piece from a dark, looming minor chord. The swords are represented by a cymbal roll as the trumpets come in. This is, in my mind, the general idea I was going for in terms of possible cinematic imagery. It was composed using GarageBand (sigh) for Mac. Please tell me what you think.
