UNTIL THE NIGHT COLLAPSES: The American Prize - Semi-Finalist

I'm very pleased to announce that "UNTIL THE NIGHT COLLAPSES" has been selected as a semi-finalist in the 19-20 Band/Wind Ensemble professional composition division of The American Prize national non-profit competitions in the performing arts! I'm incredibly grateful to Dr. Michael Thomas King & Dr. Bruce Moss, and the Bowling Green State University Concert Band for their fantastic performance and recording of the work. The piece was dedicated to the students, parents & staff of Marjory Stoneman Douglas HS in Parkland, Florida, and their Director, Mr. Alex Kaminsky. It is equally important to recognize the members of the commissioning consortium, whom through their support made manifest the urgent message that bi-partisan action on common sense gun reform must be taken:

Dr. Michael Butler, Director of Bands - University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point
Brad Davis, Director of Bands - Flushing High School Wind Ensemble
Brad Farynairz, Director of Bands - Woodhaven High School Bands
Russ Hilton, Director of Bands - L’Anse Creuse High School Bands
