Program Notes

The Parting Glass (arr. 2022) is an arrangement of the traditional Scottish/Irish song that highlights the love, loss, celebration, and nostalgia of a gathering of friends. This arrangement's changing meters, subito dynamics, and orchestrational pivots evoke the twists and turns of life and gesture to hope for the future, even when one's own path is unsure or unknown. 


The Parting Glass was arranged for the 2014 Composers on Holiday album project that fundraised for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. Thank you to Brett Hodge and Horns of the Heartland for commissioning this arrangement for horn choir.
