[February 20, 2004] –
The American Composers Forum began matching composers and communities a few years ago. The program is called "Continental Harmonies". When it's done, more than 50 communities, in all fifty states, will have a song written just for them. A song celebrating something special about their home. Statewide's Brad Penner reports, judges selected the Omaha Nation, and the town of Macy, as Nebraska's winner. A local committee then selected New York composer Stacey Fox to write their song.
