Niagara Falls has held the fascination of human beings from the time the very first Native American heard the low thunder of the falls and followed the sound to the mighty cascade. Niagara captures three important elements of the history and legends surrounding the Falls, and takes the listener on a journey through time. It consists of three sections, with an ancient Iroquois melody serving as their musical foundation.

With flowing melodic lines and rich harmonic textures throughout, this work depicts a beautiful journey down the Niagara River. As the river gains strength, the music gradually builds in intensity until it gives way to the awe-inspiring view of Niagara Falls. Exceptional writing by a young composer, and a great way to expose your students to music by one of their peers.
