Comissioned by Heath Miller, for the Tulsa Memorial High School Band, in loving memory of his brother, Ensign Evan Walling Miller. Inspired by the following poem from Walt Whitman’s poem Song of the Open Road (1856):Camerado, I give you my hand!I give you my love more precious than money,I give you myself before preaching or law;Will you give me yourself? will you come travel with me?Shall we stick by each other as long as we live? (4:30)
