Program Notes

The Concerto for Violin and Symphonic Winds was commissioned by violin virtuoso Kenneth Goldsmith, in celebration of his 60th birthday, and is dedicated to him. A man and musician of immense character, the music attempts to reflect this through three character-driven movements, whose subtitles carry the program.
