Program Notes

Jon Shultz attended high school with the composer, Randall Standridge, in Sheridan, Arkansas. They have maintained their friendship over the years, and Mr. Schultz has frequently asked Mr. Standridge to write pieces for his band, often at the last minute.

In the spring of 2014, he called to request an opening piece for their upcoming concert, which was two weeks away. The composer, always up for a challenge, completed the piece in two days, and Undecim was the result.

Undecim is Latin for "eleven," referring both to the "eleventh hour" (the last opportunity to get something done) and the opening metric feel of the piece (7/8 + 2/4 = 11 eighth notes). This is a high-energy opener.
