Theme: “Pirates of the Mississippi”
My 5.25 minute pyromusical highlights many of the things pirates love; open waters, a lot of gold/silver, and of course, cannons. I incorporated what I felt was a nod to pirates of the past by incorporating many blues and greens as a pirate’s life is spent mostly on the high seas and venturing into unknown lands looking for treasure. With the Gateway Arch and downtown St. Louis, MO as the backdrop, you will experience the highs and lows of pirate life via music and pyrotechnics.
