Stillness – the Story of the first female to fly across the Atlantic
Stillness was commissioned by an international consortium consisting of the following ensembles.

University of Kansas Wind Ensemble (U.S.A.)
Central Band of the Royal Air Force (United Kingdom)
Montclair University Wind Symphony (U.S.A.)
Burry Port Town Band (Wales)
