Program Notes: As the first rays of the sun begin to creep over the mountains and into the valley of the Delaware Water Gap, life seems to be at peace in its tranquility. But as the light continues to grow and reach more fully into the valley, the true splendor of this majestic area is revealed. Inspired by Justin McCarthy’s painting of the Delaware Water Gap, Daybreak attempts to capture that moment of dawn in
this picturesque place.
