Program Notes

Symphonia Gloriosa was commissioned by Lee University to honor its President, Dr. Paul Conn, when he completed his 20th year at the helm of this remarkable university. As part of a year-long celebration, Holsinger was commissioned to write this fanfare to open the festivities in the fall of 2006. Based on one of Dr. Conn’s favorite hymns, the 1906 Charles P. Jones hymn, All I Need, the fanfare opens with penetrating percussion and jagged brass outbursts, interjecting fragments and phrases of the hymn as it propels toward the final chorale and riveting conclusion. Ten years later, the music continues!.....
