The Eagle Tree
The Eagle Tree, Jessica Hunt (2018)
for orchestra
The San Juan Islands are tucked away in the very northwestern-most corner of the Pacific Northwest, with Guemes Island as the first, and the smallest, in the archipelago. It has its own tiny ferry to shuttle a few cars at a time back and forth from Anacortes, Washington. Tourists mostly pass over the unassuming island in favor of other, larger islands’ offerings, leaving Guemes’ beautiful craggy cliffs and timbered hills mostly to its peaceful residents. there’s a part of me that grew up on this island, spending slow, quiet childhood summers with my grandparents. My grandparents’ old home has now been sold, and a new child has taken my place in the yellow house with its eagle tree on the cliff. I can never go back, but I will always remember.
Orchestral instrumentation: 2.2.2.2/2.2.0.0/timp/str
Orchestral performance parts are available via rental.
