Program Notes
Lightbringers was written in the first quarter of 2014 for the first annual Lee University Percussion Ensemble Composition Contest. The work won third prize in the competition and received its premiere performance by the Lee University Percussion Ensemble in Cleveland, Tennessee on November 2, 2014. It is a work written to feature a percussion duo in front of an ensmelbe and contains several virtuosic yet ensemble-friendly musical ideas and orchestrations.
This piece is dedicated to many of my friends, colleagues, and mentors who have shown a sense of contagious optimism when dealing with their students as well as their co-workers and family. It is also, as a side dedication, a tribute to Brandon Wood, whom I had met briefly several week before his untimely death.
The music of Lightbringers is dedicated wholeheartedly to the sense of cooperation and optimism we feel as a community of musicians working together. It is a very light-hearted yet extremely energetic approach to that single, simple emotion of happiness. I would encourage any participating performers to put all of their energy into every note of this piece. – Lucas Garner [1]
