Program Notes

The was my first work for concert wind ensemble, commissioned by the Usdan Center for the Performing Arts by my high school band teacher, David Schecher. It is a reflection on how each generation steps out of the shadows od the previous one. Musically, it has distinct tastes of Americana and shades of all [sic] many other composers who have inspired me through the years.
