Program Notes
The jet stream is a fast-moving current of air found high in the atmosphere that directly affects the weather all around the globe. This composition portrays the speeds and motions of this powerful air current. A series of festive fanfares introduces this force of nature, followed by the flowing melody that soars throughout, much like an ever-moving river of air. After this respite the opening material returns for a triumphant and emphatic finale.
