Program Notes
Then is inspired by the allure of its titular adverb. It is a word of multiple meanings:
"Then," in the temporal sense, invoking memories past: "Back then . . ." "Then," in the conditional sense, defining that which is contingent: "If . . . , then . . ." "Then," in the interjectional sense, heralding an unexpected change of events: "Then, suddenly . . ."
Then was commissioned by the Van Wert High School Symphonic Band's Class of 2019 as a gift to their director, Robert H. Sloan.
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
