Depicting the
awe-inspiring moments after a thunderstorm, this concert overture is
an exciting and dramatic work that portrays streaks of sunlight
jetting toward the horizon. A lyrical opening sets the tone as the
clouds begin to break, and then the music takes off in a frenzy of
excitement as the sunlight breaks through. Incredible harmonies
intertwine with dynamic fanfares and woodwind flourishes as the work
continues to develop. A lyrical section provides a brief respite to
the active rhythmic pulse before the music takes off again, building
to one last heroic statement of the main theme. Inspirational!
