All Things Majestic

by Jennifer Higdon

A Note from Concertmaster Holly Mulcahy
How does one describe a mountain range in music? Composer Jennifer Higdon took a hike through the Grand Teton National Park’s back country several years ago to find inspiration for a musical portrait. You can listen to small details and step back and hear big phrases in her work All Things Majestic, just as you would look at small details and big mountains in the Grand Teton Range.
