Publisher's Synopsis
(Boosey & Hawkes Chamber Music). "Written in 2010 for violinists Todd Reynolds, and the sky was still there tells the story of an old friend, Amber Ferenz, and the epiphany that led her to embrace her true self, confront the US Army, and accept a dishonorable discharge under the Army's Don't Ask Don't Tell policy. Amber tells her own story in this work, while the violin plays along, providing a sometimes-somber, sometimes-whimsical sub-text. Amber's story, though unique, represents a struggle we all face on some level, whether to confrom to cultural expectations, or defy them in pursuit of greater truths." -- David T. Little
