That We Might Live
... is not yet scheduled for recording.

Please also read: That We Might Live... by Grace C. Nash. I did not know this book existed until long after writing both this work and KAKEHASHI: That We Might Live. And the SYNC? It's enormous!


"Steve, We rendered "That We Might Live" last night. It was amazing!
Your music was the central piece for the evenings performance, which
included works like: Mendelssohn's War March of the Priests, Grieg's
Funeral March, Sousa's Semper Fidelis...among others. The concert was even more special for me, because last night was the first time that the students rendered this piece of music without it being an "academic" pursuit. Finally, they just "let go" and chose to simply embrace the music.....it brought out truly powerful emotions for me and the audience. It was like something just clicked with the orchestra....and all of a sudden they all realized simultaneously what this music was really about. You should have heard both the horn and violin soli near the beginning of the piece......my heart melted! Thank you so much for writing music that is not only REAL, but challenges our students to be sensitive, caring, and thoughtful individuals." Scott Hensil Orchestra Director- AP Music Theory

"There's that point in the Music - that part - that moment - when a Question is asked, and in that same moment, that same instant, the Answer is given! 'Why?' is asked, and as you ask it, before there are words - the anguished mind and heart colliding - the answer, or something more than an answer, is received... The mind is cleared, the Heart, freed." Nick Melillo
