Eleven students came together under the tutelage of Tim Huling and wrote new music for Clarinet, Harp, Percussion, and string quartet. The result was these pieces - beautiful new works ranging from impressionistic, to lyrical, to modern, to programmatic.

This album is a recording the pieces' world premieres in the lovely Chapel at the Good Shepherd Center in Seattle, Washington, in front of a packed house. Laura Deluca - Clarinets, Bethany Mann - Harp, Rob Tucker - Percussion, Gennady Filimonov - Violin 1, Artur Grisky - Violin 2, Arie Shachter - Viola, Walter Gray - Cello
