Earthscape" is a lyrical piece inspired by the view of our planet from space. In the silent, black vacuum of space exists this bright blue planet, slowly rotating, giving astronauts a serene and breathtaking view of the only source of life in our solar system. This work features the quintet in a peaceful mood and offers the opportunity for some soloistic playing by the trumpet players. The organ adds a warm and then powerful sound to support the quintet.
