Feel the wind sweeping across the land beneath a wide open sky. This uplifting theme in G major captures the spirit of adventure as players journey through a melodic and harmonic landscape. Light staccato accompaniments dot the fields like wildflowers as the syncopated melody rises from distant majestic mountains, leading to an exhilarating key change to D major. Take wing and soar with this joyful concert selection.
Across the Plains seeks to capture the drama and beauty of the journey west that so many American pioneers made. I was inspired by the magnificent natural beauty of this country, from the peaks of the Colorado Rockies to the rolling hills of the Appalachian valleys. I imagined what it must have felt like for pioneers crossing the country, the excitement and spirit of adventure but also the hardships and difficult journey.
