New Providence Overture
David Sampson (2003)
The dictionary defines providence as the
wisdom, care, and guidance believed to be provided by God. The
New Jersey Youth Symphony is a result of wisdom, care and guidance for
its talented and dedicated youth and the future they represent. I wrote
New Providence Overture to honor the achievements of both the
participants and the facilitators. To capture the vitality and optimism
of its performers, I created sections of full orchestral textures alternating
with solos, duets, trios which, besides creating tremendous energy and
fun, showcase the talents and abilities of each individual. The work
ends with a final climatic burst from the entire orchestra. Bravo to
all involved in the New Jersey Youth Symphony!
