Program Notes

Our Kingsland Spring was commissioned by my friend Elizabeth E. Taylor, District Band Chair for the Georgia Music Educators' Association District 8 Middle School Honor Band. It was premiered by this ensemble in Kingsland, Georgia in a wonderful festival for which I was invited to guest conduct. The students and their teachers were so enjoyable to be around that I decided on this title to commemorate our time together. Our Kingsland Spring was the final piece in our festival concert, which was actually held on the first day of spring in 2004.
