On July 4, 2022, the Highland Park community was shocked by the senseless gun-violence that occurred during their 4th of July parade.
I will be writing a new work (title TBD) to remember and honor those lost, as well as give hope to the community bearing their remembrance.
My most sincere thanks to HPHS band director Josh Chodoroff and our mutual friend Adam Gore for spearheading and trusting me for this musical initiative.
