Anniversary Celebration for guitar and strings was commissioned for the Tenth Anniversary season of the Louisiana Sinfonietta. It uses quotations from various Baroque composers throughout. Four solo guitar interludes are interposed between the orchestral movements.
This piece was later reworked into three different versions: (a) Baroque Concerto for guitar and chamber (or string) orchestra, (b) Gathering of Friends for string orchestra, and (c) Four Interludes for Solo Guitar/Violin/Viola/Cello.
