Millikan Symphony is a 47-minute work for full orchestra written in four movements, each honoring an area of Bob's work and accomplishment: Science, Animals, Rowing, Violin. My intention with this composition was not to simply write a piece for the orchestra to play, but to compose a work in collaboration with the UNC/regional community. Dr. Robert Millikan was the Barbara S. Hulka Distinguished Professor of Cancer Epidemiology at UNC-Chapel Hill.
