Masters Music DVD Series Completed in the summer of 1991, Postcard was commissioned by H Robert Reynolds in memory of his mother, Ethel Virginia Curry. He requested that the composition not be an elegy commemorating her death, but a short energetic piece celebrating her life. Frank Ticheli joined the USC composition faculty in 1991. His music has been described as “brilliantly effective, deeply felt, with impressive flair and striking instrumental colors…” The Philadelphia Orchestra, Atlanta Symphony, Detroit Symphony and the Dallas Symphony have performed Ticheli’s works. He received his doctoral and masters degrees in composition from the University of Michigan. H. Robert Reynolds is the principal conductor of the USC Thornton Wind Ensemble. For 26 years he served as Director of Bands at the University of Michigan, and conductor of the Detroit Chamber Winds and Strings.
