The first movement, "Endless Plains" suggests the vast grassland that is much of the Serengeti and the activity of a day on these plains. Serengeti becomes a different place when darkness falls. The second movement, "Twilight" attempts to capture the beauty and mystery of that time. It is the migration for which Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Hundreds of thousands of animals travel south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November, and then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and June. The final movement, "Great Migration" gives a sense of the forward drive and drama of this unique event.

Serengeti becomes a different place when darkness falls. The second movement, "Twilight" attempts to capture the beauty and mystery of that time. It is the migration for which Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Hundreds of thousands of animals, including wildebeest, zebras, giraffes, and lions travel south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November, and then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and June. So strong is the ancient instinct to follow the rains that nothing can deter this force of nature. The final movement, "Great Migration" gives a sense of the forward drive and drama of this unique event. Serengeti was written for and premiered in memory of our friend, colleague, and long-time percussion instructor at Tennessee Tech, Joseph Rasmussen.
