Duration 6 minutes, 58 seconds. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-3461-75. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-3461-75).Reflective, joyous and uplifting are but a few of the words that best describe this highly dramatic work by noted composer James Swearingen. Intended as a tribute, this composition musically celebrates three wonderful high school students whose lives were all tragically taken. Great compositional writing, memorable themes and an emotional middle section based on an old English hymn, all combine to create an outstanding piece that is well-suited for contest and festival use. Your students will greatly benefit from the various solo opportunities and the powerful ending will leave your audience with a tremendous feeling of hope and resolve. Incredibly stunning!
