Original

Reagan of Illinois composed by David R. Holsinger. For symphonic band and narrator. Grade 4.5. Large score. Duration 18. 29. Published by TRN Music Publisher. TU.LSREA1. Take advantage of this over-stock pricing while supplies last. To celebrate the President's 100th Birthday remembrance on February 6, 2011, the City of Dixon commissioned this work for Symphonic Band and Narrator, as a gift of love from his hometown. The narration, gathered from his autobiography, "Ronald Reagan, An American Life" takes us from his initial remembrances of Dixon to his first audition with Warner Brothers Studios in 1939. As with his delightfully written reminiscence, the composition is laced with gratitude, fond recollections, and humorous anecdotes concerning his years growing up in the Illinois farmland. Admittedly, one of the more delightful moments in the compositional process for me was a chance to do a little historical "borrowing," incorporating not only the beautiful Illinois State Song, but also the 1930's era Eureka College Hymn and the Eureka College Fight Song, the very tunes probably heard by a young football player named "Dutch" Reagan while attending college there.

Per celebrar el 100 aniversari de la memòria del president el 6 de febrer de 2011, la Ciutat de Dixon va encarregar aquesta obra per a banda simfònica i narrador, com un regal d'amor de la seva ciutat natal. La narració, obtinguda de la seva autobiografia, "Ronald Reagan, An American Life" ens porta des dels seus records inicials de Dixon a la seva primera audició amb Warner Bros el 1939. Igual que amb el seu reminiscència deliciosament escrita, la composició es lliga amb gratitud, records entranyables i divertides anècdotes sobre els seus anys que creix a les terres de cultiu d'Illinois. Admittedly, one of the more delightful moments in the compositional process for me was a chance to do a little historical "borrowing," incorporating not only the beautiful Illinois State Song, but also the 1930's era Eureka College Hymn and the Eureka College Fight Song, the very tunes probably heard by a young football player named "Dutch" Reagan while attending college there.
