Description:

FOREVER FREE was composed at the request of the Wheeling Symphony Orchestra, André Raphel, Music Director, to celebrate the sesquicentennial of the State of West Virginia. Maestro Raphel suggested a work incorporating indigenous elements of the State’s musical heritage, capturing in musical sound the robust spirit of West Virginia citizens and the celebratory atmosphere surrounding the year-long commemoration of the State’s 150th anniversary, June 20, 2013. FOREVER FREE is cast in one movement in three sections, with the title inspired by the state motto, “Montani semper liberi,” usually translated as “Mountaineers forever free.” Versions for both orchestra and wind band are available.
