Absolutely
thrilling! This whirlwind of energy evokes the heroic spirit of the
early seafarers, those brave sailors who traversed the high seas
during the peak of the clipper ship era. Woodwind flourishes set the
stage for the heroic main theme, which establishes the pace of the
work. The quiet middle section reflects the sailors' isolation from
land and loved ones before the feeling of triumph emerges once again,
as the thrill of sailing on the high seas comes crashing right into
your concert hall. A great concert opener!
