“As with all my family, friends and colleagues who are “Sheltered In” I also found myself challenged with something to do. For me, it was heading back to my compositional interests, challenging myself with the opportunity to create. These compositions start out in a sketch form, (as they all do…) and as it starts to develop, it tells me what direction to take. By the time I get 70% into it, I start to feel the Title surfacing (although I have an abstract concept of what is being developed). The challenge was to develop a composition based on one idea. …. the first 3 notes that you’ll hear in the opening French Horn/Euphonium Statement…… from that point on, it takes its course.  The Title simply reflects where we all (the world!) are and dealing with. Covid-19.” – William Gantt
