The three
movements of Adventures
in Yellowstone present
iconic scenes from the
park. The first movement,
Waiting for Old Faithful,
begins with a tremolo,
representing the rumbling
before the famous geyser
erupts, followed by
figures that move up and
down the keyboard
depicting the shooting
water. Grand Prismatic
Spring is the second
movement, a mysterious
piece filled with
scale-like figures and
short motives based on
various intervals. The
last movement, Wildlife
in the Valleys, creates
various moods associated
with animals found in the
region, including wolves,
bears, and buffalo. The
exciting ending concludes
with a glissando and
fortissimo chords.
