Since the beginning of time, mankind has been fascinated with the mystery and the majesty, the freedom and the beauty of those creatures who possess the gift of flight. They soar to the heights, they plummet, and they hunt, all with the freedom that can only be a dream to mere mortals. Allow your musicians and your audiences the opportunity to experience this wonderfully crafted work which propels us into that aura of what lies within and what lies beyond. Look extremely closely at this composition. (3:50)
