                  <text>Collection of photographs of the Wyoming Blizzard of 1949. In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations "Operation Hay-lift" and "Pitchfork" in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks. The Casper Army Air Base along with several other out-of-state military forces also assisted in digging out roads with the overburdened highway department crews, as well as contributing to relief and evacuation efforts. The U.S. Army Air Base in Casper, Wyoming opened in 1942 to train bomber crews. &#13;
&#13;
Photographs from this collection can be found in the Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection accessible through the Casper College Western History Center. The Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection includes hundreds of photographs, articles, correspondence, and other documentary items pertaining to Wyoming history from 1920-1980 and Chuck Morrison's life, career as Wyoming State Representative, writings, photography, and military service in WWII.</text>

                  <text>Collection of photographs of the Wyoming Blizzard of 1949. In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations "Operation Hay-lift" and "Pitchfork" in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks. The Casper Army Air Base along with several other out-of-state military forces also assisted in digging out roads with the overburdened highway department crews, as well as contributing to relief and evacuation efforts. The U.S. Army Air Base in Casper, Wyoming opened in 1942 to train bomber crews. &#13;

                <text>Photograph of "Pilots of the Storm," Army engineers on a bulldozer trying to break through 35-40 foot snow drifts in 32 below zero on Brooks Road. In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations "Operation Hay-lift" and "Pitchfork" in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks. The Casper Army Air Base along with several other out-of-state military forces also assisted in digging out roads with the overburdened highway department crews, as well as contributing to relief and evacuation efforts. &#13;

                <text>Photograph of a rotary plow attempting to keep the Casper Air Base clear. In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations "Operation Hay-lift" and "Pitchfork" in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks.

                  <text>Collection of photographs of the Wyoming Blizzard of 1949. In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations "Operation Hay-lift" and "Pitchfork" in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks. The Casper Army Air Base along with several other out-of-state military forces also assisted in digging out roads with the overburdened highway department crews, as well as contributing to relief and evacuation efforts. The U.S. Army Air Base in Casper, Wyoming opened in 1942 to train bomber crews. &#13;
&#13;
Photographs from this collection can be found in the Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection accessible through the Casper College Western History Center. The Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection includes hundreds of photographs, articles, correspondence, and other documentary items pertaining to Wyoming history from 1920-1980 and Chuck Morrison's life, career as Wyoming State Representative, writings, photography, and military service in WWII.</text>

                  <text>Collection of photographs of the Wyoming Blizzard of 1949. In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations "Operation Hay-lift" and "Pitchfork" in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks. The Casper Army Air Base along with several other out-of-state military forces also assisted in digging out roads with the overburdened highway department crews, as well as contributing to relief and evacuation efforts. The U.S. Army Air Base in Casper, Wyoming opened in 1942 to train bomber crews. &#13;
&#13;
Photographs from this collection can be found in the Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection accessible through the Casper College Western History Center. The Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection includes hundreds of photographs, articles, correspondence, and other documentary items pertaining to Wyoming history from 1920-1980 and Chuck Morrison's life, career as Wyoming State Representative, writings, photography, and military service in WWII.</text>

Flight ofthe Golden Bird (2023)
is dedicated to the Wyoming Symphony.
The Wyoming prairie shimmers with life. Plants rustle in the strong winds,
and birds sing brightly.
The western meadowlark takes to wing, but the strong winds make it difficult. She is
knocked to and fro, a leaf in a powerful breeze, but her little body was made to fly, and fly
she does, coasting on the wind that was hindering her seconds before.
The rolling hills are golden brown, and the grass billowing in the wind appears co gleam like
the scales of fish in a far away ocean. But none of these things are on her mind for dark storm clouds that were far off on the horizon are now shadowing the prairie, The
wind howls, and rain starts to fall. She is knocked askew, and struggles to maintain direction.
"Thunder crashes and flares of lightning illuminate the dark clouds.

Spiraling down to the ground, the meadowlark dives for cover from the storm. She finds her­
self in a mass of tangled branches, some underbrush. Suddenly the storm feels much quieter,
despite the plant swaying in the wind.

She is alone. She sings out, listening for other bird calls. She can hear them respond,
but she cannot see their source, and she wonders - are these the calls of
my friends or the wind whistling?
And yet despite the isolation, the uncertainty, and the storm raging, the prairie is beautiful.
There is the gray of the sky, the sound of rain hitting the branches of the underbrush, and
the occasional rays of sun cutting through the gloomy sky.
Eventually, the warmth of the sun overpowers the waning storm and she feels the light on
her face, her wings, and in her eyes - the glare almost too much.

The wind may be gusting with immense force, and these may be the same winds that blew in
the storm, but they are also the same winds that blew the storm away. Not one to ever give
up, the western meadowlark takes to wing once more, her song echoing all around as
she rides through wind and sun.

�PRgGRAM NO!
The relationship between
student and teacher is always
noteworthy, but the relationship
between student and teacher
for musicians is particularly
so. Among performers, the
teacher inspires and establishes
a process of conceptualizing
music and executing on that
concept. Composition teachers
will establish a starting point
for the student, and the
student's natural gifts, along
with exposure to other music,
will develop a unique style. The
relationship between teacher
and student is perhaps best
illustrated among composers
in the instruction Beethoven
received from Haydn. While half
of Beethoven's symphonies 1,2, 4, and 8 - have a distinct
feel of Haydn's influence,
the other symphonies have
cemented Beethoven's legacy
as a revolutionary. The years
of Beethoven's study roughly
coincide with the composition
of Haydn's trumpet concerto,
and Beethoven's extension
of compositional technique
is demonstrated in his Sixth
Symphony a little more than a
decade later.
Haydn wrote his trumpet
concerto in 1796 for Anton

Weldinger, although the work
was not performed until 1800.
Weldinger was an innovator
of a keyed trumpet, in theory
offering a greater variety
of pitches than its natural
trumpet counterpart, but the
instrument was limited in
success, and trumpet players
were a generation away from
the valves that would provide
greater range and flexibility.
The concerto is in the three
distinct movements typical
of concertos of the classical
period. The first movement, in
the variant of sonata allegro
form we hear in concertos,
states two contrasting themes
in the orchestra, followed
by statements in the solo
instrument. The opening theme
is appropriately fanfare-like for a
work for trumpet. As the musical
ideas are developed, the
interplay between the orchestra
and the soloist becomes more
pronounced. The movement
concludes with a cadenza which
both demonstrates the soloist's
virtuosity and weaves together
the themes of the movement.
The second movement is less
intricate musically and provides
a more lyrical respite from
the musical rigors of the first
movement. The third movement.

�"Rondo," is by its very structure
easy on the ear, integrating
multiple short musical ideas to
form a light, cohesive conclusion
to the work.

the canvas of music, the longer
symphony and nature themes
easily invoke the same reaction
as, say, a Bierstadt painting of
the American West.

A dozen years separate the
Haydn and Beethoven works
but one would be forgiven
for assuming it was a much
larger gap. A few elements of
Beethoven's divergence from his
teacher are apparent upon the
most casual observation, such
as the length of the symphony,
the centering of the symphony
along a common "nature"
theme, and the titling of the
movements along the theme.
The symphony was composed
roughly concurrently with
Beethoven's Fifth Symphony,
and we can hear traces of one
work in the other, such as the
transition without break from
one movement to another and
the expansion of the orchestra in
the later movements. The music
is evocative of the indicated
scenes, a carefree life in the
countryside opening the work,
happy gatherings of country
folk, a terrible storm, and then
the rejoicing after the storm
that all is, once again, well. This
depiction of nature in all its
expansiveness is a hallmark of
Romanticism in the visual arts,
and that Beethoven's images are
so vivid within the symphony,
this depiction of nature maps
well to the visual arts. If time is

Romanticism in music and its
counterpart in the visual arts
have their similarities, but they
differ in one key respect, the
role that time plays in the artistic
experience. A painting may
be experienced in a timeframe
established by the beholder,
while a piece of music must be
experienced in the timeframe
established by the composer.
The composer must establish
cohesion in real-time, and the
techniques for creating a single
musical unit that unfolds over
an hour are where Beethoven's
mastery reveals itself. Each
movement of the symphony
has a limited number of musical
ideas, yet in developing those
ideas through fragmentation,
inversion, juxtaposition, and
the other tools available to the
composer, we experience the
enormity of the natural scene
as Beethoven intends. We are
brought back into the scene with
musical depictions of birds in the
woodwinds and thunder in the
basses. Cohesion is built using
both the traditional elements of
form to establish familiarity with
the musical material and with
depictions of the familiar.

�MfGAN KARLS
CONCERTMASTER
Megan Karls makes her home in
Montana, where she performs as
co-concertmaster of the Great Falls
Symphony and with their resident
artists, the Cascade Quartet.
She serves frequently as guest
concertmaster for the Bozeman
and Billings Symphonies,
Intermountain Opera Company,
and String Orchestra of the Rockies,
and performs regularly with the Boise
Philharmonic and Spokane Symphony.

Megan is the first woman in classical music to
be awarded the Montana Arts Council's Artist Innovation Award,
for her debut video album entitled "Decommissioned: Solo
Violin in Cold War Relics," filmed live in decommissioned military
structures across Montana.

She has recently appeared as soloist with the Milwaukee
Philharmonic and Great Falls Symphony, and as a chamber
musician, Megan has been a guest artist across the nation,
including Oberlin Conservatory, Lawrence University, Northern
Illinois University, Roundtop, and the Society for Electroacoustic
Music in the US.
She spends her summers with the Britt Music Festival, McCall
Music Festival, Assisi Performing Arts in Italy, and has traveled to
El Salvador as a Teaching Artist and toured Bulgaria in 2021 with
Symphony Vratsa.
Megan maintains a beloved studio of young violinists and in 2015
received the Yale Distinguished Music Educator Award on behalf
of the Great Falls Symphony and Public Schools collaborative
partnership.

Megan is grateful to her mentors from Lawrence University and
the University of Iowa, where she holds degrees with honors in
Violin Performance and Political Science.
