Music for Springtime was inspired in part by Samuel Barber's woodwind quintet Summer Music, a staple of the
repertoire written in 1956. Music for Springtime is a not an homage to Barber's work but does reflect and touch upon
some of the moods and character changes heard in Summer Music. Music for Springtime was also shaped by the
circumstances and timing of its composition: I wrote it in the year after I moved from California back to my native
Pennsylvania, shortly after the birth of my daughter, and mostly in the springtime. Thoughts of rebirth and
rejuvenation, but also of the uncertainty of transition, were undoubtedly present while I wrote.
