Program Notes
When I did my MM degree at Hartt, and there were four other master’s student composers who started at the same as me. We did a couple group pieces where each composer would write a movement that was two minutes or less for a given instrument, and they would be performed as a suite on one of the student composer concerts. Elegy was originally written for one of these projects, a suite intended for euphonium.
