The Neverland Waltz.

Once upon a time I wrote a series of songs for a local Am-Dram version of Peter Pan. At some point I decided it would be a good idea to orchestrate one of these songs for full symphony orchestra. It’s a big orchestra aswell, an enlarged woodwind section and a big sound.

Plot synopsis - in the Neverland Waltz Peter is trying to convince Wendy to come away to Neverland and have adventures. It’s slow and gentle, as he implores her to come, and then fast and lively when he describes all the amazing things in Neverland (this is the Waltz part).
