Program Notes

This piece was written to celebrate the beginning of “United Sound”, an organization put together by my friend Julie Duty whose sole purpose is to put instruments and the instrumental performing experience into the hands and lives of special needs students. I so believe in this initiative that it inspired me to write this piece of music for young band. I feel that “United Sound” will eventually have as big an impact on music education as anything in recent history It is my hope that (Risk) Everything for a Dream will eventually be one of the many pieces that will be used to bring special needs students into the band world. I am honored to be involved with “United Sound” and I hope this piece will give performers and their audiences a hint of the overwhelming emotion that this endeavor has placed in my soul.
