The "Spitfire" was a single-seat fighter airplane successfully used by the Allies in World War II against the German Luftwaffe. With its rhythmically-charged parts for every member of the orchestra and dynamic percussion parts, the composer has created an exhilarating musical evocation of the daily life of a fighter pilot taking part in the Battle of Britain.

Use this exciting work to add some variety and "zing" to your orchestra concert!
