Program Note
Enrapture is dedicated to my friend and former high school band director, Raleigh “Butch” Eversole, IV. He has always been an enthusiastic commissioner, performer, and supporter of my compositional activities, starting with him generously directing the Lewis Palmer Wind Symphony in a read-through my ill-fated arrangement of Stravinsky’s Firebird way back in 2006 (my arranging skills have improved, thankfully). Butch was the first and still most important reason I am a composer.
