Robert Edward Smith, composer-in-residence, had his work, Variations on an American Folk Song, performed by the Nashua (NH) Chamber Orchestra. Described by World Premier as “a stunning, melodic journey through many different moods, which ends with a brilliant fugue and returns home with a triumphant statement of the opening theme,” the piece premiered at Daniel Webster College in October, 2005, under the direction of David Feltner.
