The Crystal Hill is the nickname for New Hampshire's Mount Washington, the highest peak in the north eastern USA. Its weather is notoriously fickle, and the world's highest wind speed of 231 m.p.h. was recorded there in 1934. Composer Brad Ciechomski paints a vivid portrait depecting a climb up the mountain. Soaring melodies and exuberant rhythms depict and intrepid trek. Wind sound effects enhance the performance. Download the free audio files from the Kjos Multimedia Library at www.kjos.com.
