About this product
In the lead-up to the World Athletics Championships held in Eugene, Oregon in 2022, the Eugene Symphony commissioned David Schiff to compose a unique musical tribute to legendary local runner Steve Prefontaine, one of the most important figures in American running. Inspired by his legacy, the symphony Prefontaine celebrates his life, athleticism, and activism, incorporating the landscapes and memories of his hometown. From the drive to Coos Bay to his legendary high school years and iconic races, the work blends orchestral storytelling with themes of ambition and resilience. Closing the program, Andrea Reinkemeyer's Water Sings Fire, a dynamic orchestral piece inspired by Leigh Bardugo's feminist origin myth, explores themes of power, betrayal, and transformation, honoring the voices of the wronged and marginalized. Both works reflect the profound cultural impact of their subjects, blending music with the rich history and challenges they represent. Album Tracks 1.
