Program Notes
Until Morning Come (2018) is written for and dedicated to Alex Kaminsky and the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Wind Symphony for their “Our Reply” concert, which was performed in response to the shooting that occurred at their school on February 14, 2018. The work was written in loving memory of the deceased victims of the shooting and is also dedicated to the living victims of gun violence as they seek love, peace, and understanding.
- Program Note from University of North Texas Wind Ensemble concert program, 19 February 2019
This is our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.
