Flying high above the forest with a keen eye for its prey, the rapid flight of a nighthawk is a magical sight to behold. As the end of the day is consumed by dusk, the nighthawk flies higher and more swiftly than one could ever imagine. Ascending to great heights, it dramatically changes direction and streaks downward to what appears to be an inevitable and violent collision with the fast approaching ground. Within seconds of disaster, it stretches out its wings and with unbelievable force swoops gracefully along the ground before, once again, heading gently toward the sky. Many people take the opportunity to seek out this spectacular display of artistry. However, pay close attention, because as legend goes, in the blink of an eye the nighthawk could be gone.
About FJH Young Band
Appropriate for middle school and smaller high school groups. Second clarinets usually stay below the break. Parts are written with more independence, and instrumentation increases slightly. There is still adequate doubling in the lower voices. Grades 2 - 2.5
