Program Notes:
Written in the fall of 2019, this exhilarating piece for Symphonic Wind Ensemble portrays the heroism, along with the conflict—both external and internal—of peacekeepers around us. A keeper of the peace may be a soldier or a police officer, but more importantly, it is those around us, our family and friends who look out for us, our minds, and our bodies.
(Program note by D.I.D. Choi)
