Program Notes:
The Eb/F solo “Forward to the Fight!” is an imaginative expression of the hymn Soldiers, Rouse Thee (SASB #693). This battle song is attributed to an exemplar in Salvation Army ministry, Commissioner George Scott Railton (1849-1913). This solo is a musical biography of Railton whose colorful ministry and desire to fight against sin is a model for Christians everywhere.
The solo was written for Nathan Miller, a graduate horn student at Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, who follows Railton’s lead as a salvation soldier focused on the fight!
