PROGRAM NOTE
Davis Robinson: Incitatus
Note by the composer
Incitatus is a piece I composed in 2019 for a church service for graduating seniors. Incitatus was the favorite horse of Roman Emperor Caligula. I called this piece Incitatus for its lilting movements in rhythm imitating the galloping of a horse and its dramatic outbursts of joy and triumph.
