Harmonia was commissioned by the Hopkins Center/Dartmouth Symphony Orchestra to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Co-education at Dartmouth. Anthony Princiotti conducted the premiere on May 23, 1998, at Dartmouth. It is my first large-scale orchestral piece. Like my more intimate chamber works, its inspiration is personal; at the same time Dartmouth became coed, I went off to college myself, from the farm near Camden, Alabama where I’d grown up. My world became immensely bigger, as Dartmouth’s must have. Exploring the vast (to me) orchestral palette intensified my memories of this time, a mixture of nostalgia and gratitude. Harmonia was completed in March, 1998 at the Liguria Study Center in Bogliasco, Italy. Published by Quetzal Music, available from the composer.
