Program Notes
Today we live in a world of chaos and noise. Often, we find ourselves racing between work, family, travel, school, etc., so much that we tend to lose track of how quickly life is going by. Amidst all this chaos, I try to find time each day to relax and reflect on life itself, oftentimes in the evening at twilight, as the noise in the world around fades into silence. Frequently I am "recharging my batteries" more than just reflecting, but doing so in a truly peaceful way. The piece ...at Twilight captures the reflection and rest that I experience during this time without the interruptions of cell phones, email, or any other connections to the outside world.
It is my hope that listeners will take just a few moments and experience this quiet ...this tranquil feeling...that comes...at twilight.
...at Twilight was composed in dedication to my beginning band director, Mrs. Marjorie Lee, and the Valley Intermediate School Bands of Pelham, Ala. It was her persuasion to join band that led me to discover my love of music composition.
