The Shadowslayer Symphony
Wins Salvner Memorial Music AwardThis is just so cool, I have to share it.
The Warrior Heir was one of the featured books at the 2009
Youngstown State University English Festival. Ursuline High School students John Vitullo and Dan Catello wrote the Shadowslayer Symphony, a composition based on
The Warrior Heir.
It depicts the events in the graveyard after Jack digs up the sword,
Shadowslayer. The symphony won the festival's annual Jeremy Salvner
Memorial Music Award. This award is given to junior and senior high
school students participating in the English Festival who create the
best original music compositions inspired by one or more of the books
on the festival's reading list.
