Teaching the World to Play
Cloud Gate
Reflections of a CityTimothy Loest
Grade 2.5
Inspired by an enormous, mirror-like elliptical sculpture by British artist Anish Kapoor, this festival work reflects the spirit of Chicago's busy streets, vibrant people, and magnificent architecture. A bold opening moves into an invigorating theme that occurs under a moving woodwind ostinato figure. A festive mixed-meter section continues to drive the work forward before a seamless transition into a slower bluesy section reminiscent of George Gershwin. Students experience urban energy once more as the final thematic statement leads to a dynamic close!
