The piece was premiered at a concert in observance of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Baton Rouge campus of LSU, the Anniversary of the Statehood of Louisiana, the Signing of the Louisiana Purchase, the Inauguration of George Washington, and the Bicentennial Celebratio of the United States of America.
