Program Notes

Sparkle glistens with the energy of new life. Built from staccato ostinati, relentless rhythms, biting harmonies, and soaring themes, the work shines with brilliance and power. From the first measure to the last, the work drives forward with fire and intensity to the powerful ending.

Sparkle is dedicated to Mason William Ensley, the composer's grandson, born on July 16, 2010.
