This work was written in honor of the late Frederick Fennell. Fennell was a man of great energy when he conducted, even up to the end of his life. “…with honors…” is a tribute to him. I use several small motives from his favorite work, Linicolnshire Posy, to help create the nostalgic quality of the piece. Starting serenely and ending with energy depicts Fennell’s life and the way in which he seemed to live it.
