Symphony #3 Jfk

Andrew Boysen's Symphony #3, J.F.K. pays tribute to the late U.S. President, John F. Kennedy. In one continous movement, the symphony's sections depict several points in his life: "P.T. 109", "Ask Not What Your Country...", "November 22, 1963", "John-John". In addition to the battery of inventive percussion, the composer calls for a solo violin and a boy soprano to tell the story.
