Joy of Flight

9/20/2024; 6 minutes

Joy of Flight captures the night view of the Gulf of Mexico from the International Space Station set to Bach's Trio Sonata #5 and performed by organist Emily Amos. The organ is a majestic instrument, and a real challenge for musicians, with active hands and feet on multiple keyboards. Yet when it comes together it is beautiful. In 2023, Amos headed the Youth Council of the American Guild of Organists, and played this lovely floating music. The night view from Gulf of Mexico is equally majestic, sparkling below. (#40097)
