Highsmith Competition
I am very pleased to announce that my orchestral work, The Long Valley, has been selected as the winning work for the Jim Highsmith Competition, held annually at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. I know several of the applicants personally, and I admire their work immensely, which makes this occasion markedly significant and humbling for me.
This great honor comes with a performance of The Long Valley by the San Francisco Conservatory Orchestra, conducted by Andrew Mogrelia. The concert will also include repertoire by other composers: Andre Previn’s Sally Chisum Remembers Billy the Kid, and Hector Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique. Details:
