From the Land of Tomorrow is an overture-fantasia for symphony orchestra, commissioned by Miriam Burns
and School of Music at The Ohio State University. This piece is full of optimism and youthful energy.
Amidst the exhaustion from the pandemic and the extremely dramatic events of 2022, I felt that the world
(and I!) needed some positivity. The piece connects elements of classical music, jazz and Ukrainian folk
tunes and rhythms. The word "tomorrow" in the title has three symbolic meanings:
1. The students at the Ohio State Symphony Orchestra, who premiered the piece, are the world-leading
musicians of tomorrow.
2. It alludes to the hopeful resilience of Ukrainian people, which I deeply admire.
3. Most of the time when I chat to my US collaborators, it is evening in the US and the middle of the
next day in Australia. So, I jokingly refer to Australia as the Land of Tomorrow.
