cathedral sounds

Location: flight from Seattle to Fairbanks, Wednesday evening. The engine noise level is high and it distorts in my ears. I imagine I can hear - no I really can hear - rich, majestic chords descending, always descending, in minor scales. How can a musical key keep descending?

It is past midnight, I can't sleep ('cos my body says it is daytime) - and now its getting lighter in the north - hang on, my subconscious says, the sun can't be in the north...
