"Velocity" is defined in physics as the rate of change of position. This brief musical essay seeks to portray velocity in all of its forms---breathtaking speed to brutal force, the flowing elegance of flight to the heart-pounding thrill of a reckless drive. Full of rhythmic intensity, Doppler effects and technical flair, *Velocity* takes you on a musical ride you won't soon forget! *Velocity* was written for the Alexander W. Dreyfoos, Jr. School of the Arts Wind Ensemble in West Palm Beach, Florida, Wayne Miller, Director.
