Through Countless Halls Of Air - Francis McBeth

 

Through Countless Halls Of Air, McBeth, Grade 6. (S664) $195.00.

A bravura showcase dedicated to Lt. Col. Alan L Bonner and commissioned by the Air Force Band. The three movements each convey a specific moment in the history of flight, and they are I. FIRST FLIGHT II. KITTY HAWK III. HIGH FLIGHT. The opening tense fanfare celebrates the courage and fear of first flight as seen in the mythical flight of Daedalus and Icarus. The second movement expresses the grand serenity of soaring over the dunes of Kitty Hawk. The last movement, named after two of the most famous and fastest planes ever to fly, the BeeGee (actually named GeeBee) and the Blackbird (SR-71), expresses the combination of flight and speed. The movement uses two themes, one denoting tension and the other exhilaration.
