PROGRAM NOTE
The Little Boy takes its text from William Blake's "The Little Boy Lost" and "The Little Boy Found" from his Songs of Innocence. I chose these texts with the theme of 'Father's Day' in mind since I knew the piece would be premiered on that special occasion. The Little Boy is dedicated to my father, Nadim S. Haddad, the most intelligent and familial man I know.
