Combining the classical traditional style and rock and roll, this piece for solo violin and orchestra will dazzle the concert hall. Vivaldi Rocks by Mark Wood is an exciting piece that works great with strings alone, but it also includes a piano part. Other rhythm section parts can be improvised. (2:30)

Fireball was originally composed for the television broadcast of the bike race, Tour de France, for CBS Sports. The footage that inspired me featured dozens of bike racers at top speed racing down a mountain road. The stress and competition forces the riders into extremely dangerous situations reflected in the music. Thank you to Lynne Latham for the great ending idea. (2:25)

The composer, Mark Wood, writes: Come Fly with Me comes from my personal visualization of flying while improvising music. In writing a work which combines classical and American rock styles, I have created a vehicle for musicians to spread their wings and truly learn the beautiful art of composing their own music on the spot in the improvisation section.
