Program Notes
This beautiful ballad for concert band is based on a melody written by the composer's father. Skillfully scored to expose students to more complex harmonies reminiscent of Percy Aldridge Grainger, this wonderful piece explores chorales, chamber music, and full ensemble writing.
Star Above, Shine Brightly was written for Mom, Dad, Robert Miller and the Columbia Concert Band.
