Program Notes

A powerful work that recounts the magnificent story of four U.S. Army Chaplains who heroically sacrificed their lives during World War II. "The Light Eternal" is based on the well-known hymn, "God Of Our Fathers", and is filled with an abundance of musical inventiveness that will produce a startling emotional impact on the listener.

Romanesque was commissioned by the Orville, Ohio High School Band, Rob Hennell and Dave Tibbitis directors and is dedicated to the memory of The Four Chaplains, Lt. G. L. Fox, Lt. A. D. Goode, Lt. C. V. Poling and Lt. J. P. Washington.
