Commissioned for the W.F. West High School Band (Chehalis, WA) Daniel F. Judd, Director In memory of Angela Kerr Lullaby for Noah was composed for Noah Donald Koffman-Adsit and commissioned by Glen Adsit and the Hartt School Wind Ensemble. When Glen asked me to compose a lullaby for his son Noah I was completely taken with the idea. I wanted to write a piece that was simple and eloquent. As I composed this piece, I thought of that wonderful main theme of Elmer Bernstein's score for the film: To Kill a Mockingbird - how provocative and song-like - beautifully shaped and filled with a quiet melancholy. There is also a touch of melancholy in this lullaby and perhaps a longing for the innocence that once was our basic nature. 'When I approach a child, he inspires in me two sentiments; tenderness for what he is, and respect for what he may become' - Louis Pasteur.
