Monumentum (2009)
for large orchestra
Commissioned by, and composed for John Jeter and the Fort Smith Symphony Orchestra in 2009, “Monumentum” is a one-movement celebratory work with an energetic drive to its final climax. The title is a combination of the words ‘monument’ and ‘momentum,’ and indicates the composer’s appreciation for the monumental achievements accomplished by Maestro Jeter and the orchestra and the wonderful momentum those achievements have created.
