Commissioned for the 25th anniversary of Seattle's Rainbow City Performing Arts, this impactful Grade 5 work takes listeners on a profound musical journey exploring the universal themes of Discovery, Community, and Progress. While deeply inspired by the stories and resilience of the LGBTQIA+ community, the piece resonates with the shared human experiences of finding one's identity, the strength of belonging, and the resolve to overcome adversity together. The composer masterfully weaves these three central themes with a poignant hint of "The Rainbow Connection," building a rich harmonic landscape that moves from intimate uncertainty to a powerful, triumphant finale. This is more than a concert piece; it's an opportunity for meaningful connections—between musicians, with the audience, and to the larger story of how our shared experiences help us build a more inclusive and hopeful world, together.

A jubilant arrangement of three angelic carols, "Hark, The Herald Angels Sing", "Angels We Have Heard on High", and "Angels in the Realms of Glory" featuring triumphant brass fanfares, rich re-harmonizations, and an optional angelic chorus ringing in a pompous finale!

An eccentric arrangement of the Star-Spangled Banner for the more progressive listener and an interesting challenge for concert band with a familiar tune.
