This symphony is dark and dramatic, with a number of aleatoric passages. It won a call for scores by the New England Philharmonic and premiered under the baton of Richard Pittman. It has recently had a number of corrections and revisions and is presented here with a high-quality render in its newest form.

Challenger now bears a dedication to Richard Pittman.
