of an earlier SATB choral work, There Will Be Rest.
In creating this setting, the harmony, dynamics and
registration of the original have been preserved,
allowing the fragile beauty and quiet dignity to
be maintained. And while the concert band is
faithful to the choral, certain aspects have been
enhanced which keeps it independent, having its
own strengths and unique qualities.���

l Seconds Out���Samuel R. Hazo. In boxing, the
term ���seconds out��� refers to the moment when
coaches and trainers must be out of the ring, leaving

description of the challenges and triumphs of
students as they transition from middle to high
school, leaving their ���seconds��� (parents, mentors,
