Air is the second piece I composed as part of a group of pieces to be named 'The Elements.' It is supposed to depict the 'light,' 'fluffy' quality of air as well as the beauty when in the air. (But does it sound like air? I don't know...)
Story behind the song
This piece was started for a project in my senior year of high school. I had originally had an idea I really liked (the 'A' section), but didn't know what to do with it, so it sat unedited for a long time. Then I had an idea for a small ensemble piece (the 'B' section), but the ensemble never formed so I adapted that idea for orchestra.
