Commissioned by Katie Howard, "Set Free" is a piece written to convey the struggles and triumphs of many musicians as they begin their careers, especially women musicians. As quoted by Howard, "I wanted it to be something personal, and I keep thinking about my journey on trumpet to get to where I am now; I have had plenty of bumps in the road and I have been told that 'I can't' multiple times because 'I am a girl' or because I am 'not good enough.' I have never allowed this to be what motivates me because it is so negative, but I use it and turn it into something positive." Let this piece be what encourages you when you face adversity. Let this piece tell you that you can when every other voice speaks otherwise.
