National Finalist for The American Prize Ernst Bacon Memorial Award

I’m honored to have been recognized as a finalist this year for The American Prize Ernst Bacon Memorial Award, for the New York University Wind Symphony’s fantastic premiere performance of “Hilltop Run”.

Immense gratitude once more to Jason Noble, the New York University Wind Symphony, and to all of the consortium members of the Aurora Tapestry Collective “Let’s Play” project for commissioning and supporting this work, as well as the works of my fellow ATC members Kevin Day, Harrison J. Collins, and Katahj Copley.

To the students of the NYU Wind Symphony who brought this piece to life - thank you once more for your dedication, commitment, and artistry.

None of this would have been possible without you.
