When watching a jet in the sky, one imagines the rush the pilot must feel when kicking in the afterburners, that sudden burst of speed. This piece, composed by Randall D. Standridge, seeks to capture the emotions of flight in a supercharged jet plane: excitement at takeoff, awe at the beauty of the earth, and an adrenaline burst of joy when the afterburners kick in. An exciting musical ride for young strings and percussion not to be missed!
