Composed in remembrance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the title of this dramatic setting is taken from a biblical passage and quoted by Dr. King in his celebrated ā€œI Have a Dreamā€ speech in 1963. After a fanfare-like introduction, the piece is comprised of three sections. ā€œThe Dreamā€ relects on Dr. King’s famous speech. This is followed by ā€œStrife,ā€ which recalls the violence of the civil rights movement, and finally ā€œHope,ā€ which looks to a brighter future and is a setting of the hymn We Shall Overcome. Performed with or without the narration, this is a stirring work for young bands. Dur: 5:20
