Spring Forward

Written during the record breaking cold winter of 2015, the piece is reflective of upcoming warm days, and conveys the feelings of hope and propserity. As I wrote the piece it reminded me of walking barefoot in the grass soaking in the sun and smelling the fresh spring air.

Spring Forward was written as a gift to my former student, and good friend, James Kranz, and the Atholton Elementary School Orchestra of Columbia, Maryland.
