Quote from program notes of the orchestral performance:  This riveting and explosive new work will take you on a journey through Alaska’s harsh landscape with the sled dogs running the Iditarod. Known as "the last great race on Earth," the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race stretches over 1,150 miles of Alaska’s wild terrain from Anchorage to Nome.”  Stephanie Berryman has captured the sound and emotion of this demanding event in her accurate adaptation for handbells. Use of LV and Ring as well as perfectly placed marts, mart-lifts, RT, and expressions make this very exciting work a definite “must-have” for your advanced group.
