In Godspeed, John Glenn, the composer draws on all aspects of Glenn’s life. The piece is not programmatic in nature, but is instead an impression of the many complex facets of his makeup. While there are cinematic moments reflecting the adventure of Glenn’s life, the piece remains grounded in his humility, partnership with his wife, and steadfast love and commitment to his family, his country, and his faith. This anthem serves as the primary melodic material through various keys and triumphant treatments climaxing in a quote of the hymn Be Still My Soul.
