​PROGRAM NOTE
Shine Time was commissioned by the Plano Symphony Orchestra, with generous support from Charles and Tammy Miller, in honor of music
director Héctor Guzmán and his 41 fruitful seasons with the orchestra. In composing this work, I sought to create a showpiece that celebrates the unique chemistry that Maestro Guzmán and the orchestra have, shows off the virtuosity of the PSO, and even pay tribute to the Maestro himself.
