Additional info/contents	The White Thrill is a composition written on behalf of the “Musikkapelle Sankt Anton am Arlberg”, in Austria. The theme refers to the ski race Der weisse Rausch (The White Thrill), that takes place every year in Sankt Anton. The composition is in an overture form, with a majestic introduction, a fast part, a slow part and a reprise of the fast part. One theme characterizes the entire composition, with its pleasantly syncopated and fascinating rhythms; symbolizing in music the sinuous gait of the track and the rapid maneuvers of the skiers. In the introduction, the majestic aspect, symbolizes the charm of the summits covered with snow, the grandeur of the alpine landscape. In the slow part, one can imagine the quiet of winter nights lit by the moon and the stars. A beautiful and ingenious piece.

Programme notes *: The idyllic St. Anton am Arlberg in Tyrol, Austria, is known not only for its breathtaking alpine scenery and charming village, but also for a spectacular ski race called “The White Rush.” This legendary race has a long tradition and attracts both professional skiers and enthusiastic spectators every year. In this report we take a look at the history and appeal of this exciting ski race. The race has its origins in the 1930s, making it one of the oldest ski races in the world. The idea came about when a local mountain guide named Hannes Schneider was challenged to complete the route from the Vallugagrat to the village center as quickly as possible. The race was finally created in 1931 and has undergone a fascinating evolution since then. In its early years it was an event that primarily attracted local skiers. But over time it gained international fame and also attracted professionals from all over the world. The race became a fixture in the ski calendar and today bears the hallmark of a classic in alpine ski racing. The route is impressive not only because of its length of almost ten kilometers, but also because of the diverse challenges it offers the participants. The descent leads from the snow-covered peaks of the Vallugagrat down through challenging terrain, narrow passages and open slopes. Participants not only have to demonstrate their speed, but also their skill and endurance. What makes “The White Rush” special is the unique atmosphere that accompanies the race. The entire village of St. Anton comes alive during the race weekend as spectators and athletes alike immerse themselves in the festive spirit. Numerous events, après-ski parties and cultural activities accompany the race and make it an unforgettable experience for all visitors. "The White Rush" in St. Anton is more than just a ski race - it is a tradition that reflects the history of alpine skiing. The combination of a challenging route, international participation and a festive atmosphere makes this event a highlight in St. Anton am Arlberg's winter calendar and attracts ski enthusiasts from all over the world. It's a stunning example of how a local challenge can become a globally recognized spectacle.
