Program Notes:
This piece depicts the power, majesty and beauty of a mountain. It opens with the mountaineers trudging up the steep slopes—the climb is difficult and treacherous. But then the climbers reach a great plateau, several kilometres high and look at the great expanse. What they see before them is awe inspiring, breathtaking—they feel as though they are on top of the world. With this emotional lift they continue on climbing, higher and higher up Majestic Mountain.
