Recently I began sketching my next piece for wind ensemble. The piece is called Time in Memoriam. I am composing this piece for Lee Morrison and the high school wind ensemble at the New World School for the Arts in Miami, Florida. I have known Lee for about ten years since we were graduate students at Bowling Green State University in Ohio. I had first proposed the idea of composing a piece for his ensemble just after I had approached Adam Noel about writing a piece for his band.
I am excited about this new project because the wind ensemble at the New World School for the Arts is an advanced group. This will provide a new set of challenges for me. I do have some interesting ideas for this piece and I am looking forward to developing them and composing this piece.
