Description:
According to Webster’s dictionary, “adhesion” may be defined as follows: “in medicine, the growing together of normally separate tissues”. This definition, in conjunction with aspects of sonata-allegro form (typical of the first movement of a symphony), provides the structure of this short orchestral work. It was commissioned by the Greater Lansing Symphony, and dedicated to the orchestra and its conductor.
