EUPHORIA
Second-prize winner in the Second Frank Ticheli International Composition Competition

PROGRAM NOTE
Euphoria in its development reflects those rare moments where one is totally immersed in the unabashed vibrancy of life. The swirling textures and rhythmic interplay of the score reveals a state of being not encumbered by lingering everyday concerns, but instead fully embracing the carefree wonder of living, so common in our youth, where all things are possible.
