Three years ago today the World Premiere of Stand: A Symphony for Jazz Orchestra, aka Stand Symphony took place in Nyack Memorial Park With this work I sought to honor all victims, first responders, all who answered the call to arms as well as our collective grief as a nation. It is an account of the American experience in 5 movements for my band, Anita Brown Jazz Orchestra into which I wrote The United States Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon, from Washington, DC, representing ALL first responders in the scope of the piece entitled *Stand: A Symphony for Jazz Orchestra*. This week we mark the 13th year of that ominous day, 9/11/01. Here is the contiguous playlist of the work, composed so as to be accessible even to the I dont like jazz folks. I hope you will allow me to bring this concert to YOU in your home. Please just set aside 45-50 minutes to honor our collective grief and resolve. https://youtube/playlist?list=PL7445DC4409BC2DBC Concert program: standsymphony/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/StandProgram-16.pdf Thanks to all who contributed to making this possible. Please share freely. ~AB Composer & South Nyack Resident
