[2026] PWCS All-County Honor Band - "Our Cast Aways"

The 2026 PWCS All-County Honor Band's performance of "Our Cast Aways," by Julie Giroux: "for Those who rescue, Those who get rescued, and especially for Those whose rescue never comes." This was the second piece that we played. Recorded by my Mom (Thanks Mom) ... this piece is about dogs, but also presumably rescue animals in general. this came as a surprise to me, because i interpreted "castaways" as in like people lost at sea and boats and stuff (the castaways song from backyardigans also comes to mind) and this is also how i read the description at the top of the piece. very slow, beautiful lyrical piece, but make sure to watch dr. cicconi because there's a lot of slowing down and tempo fluctuations. speaking of him, he is a very cool conductor to watch. he assumes this really cool power stance type of thing and is always very flowy with his movements. this was something i never really appreciated in the moment, but he is a pretty good conductor and is good at cues and stuff. like all of his movements really encouraged everyone to try and match that. i think the ending is especially beautiful. like, the sustaining flute and clarinet stuff as the band goes in and out. that's very nice. shoutout again to the baby, who starts this piece by crying
