Description:
Commissioned by the Fremont, Nebraska High School Band, this work is subtitled: "A Nebraska Overture." It is a descriptive work depicting the Platte River from its quiet origins in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, which then winds across the rolling Nebraska landscape. There is a spirited pioneer theme depicting the courageous Americans who 150 years ago paved the way west by blazing the Oregon and Mormon Trails along the Platte River.
