In the Mississippi River valley, portions of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Illinois lie in a “driftless” region bypassed by ancient glaciers. The resulting scenic beauty is characterized by magnificent rocky bluffs, steep ravines, and forested hills. Secret Valley is a musical journey exploring a winding road through the misty bluffs, or an unexpected forested valley, a grand view of the mighty river, or a surprising burst of foliage on a crisp Autumn day. The piece uses imaginative textures and striking effects to help your imagination run wild. Dur: ca. 5:15.
