Name: Moose on the Loose by Glen Edward Newton
Duration: 3 min 29 s
Description: Moose on the Loose contrasts the calm of a pleasant walk in the woods with the adrenaline surge of seeing a full-grown bull moose walking toward you on the same path, staring straight at you. You can’t outrun a moose, so the safest place to be is high up in a tree, out of the moose’s reach. After the moose walks by, it’s safe to come down. Or is it?

Moose on the Loose

Imagine an organist - using the trombone stops - playing J. S. Bach's "Sheep May Safely Graze" from Cantata 208, but letting his attention wander. The result might sound something like this recording of the Minneapolis Trombone Choir's February 27, 2000, performance.
