This heartfelt elegy is dedicated to the life and memory of Dr. Gary Corcoran. His mentoring of so many music educators and students fortunate enough to have worked with him has been in inspiration to all who knew this talented and passionate musician. The title is drawn from one of his favorite places, the south shore of Massachusetts. South Shore Soliloquy by Robert Sheldon was commissioned by the PSC/PSU Band Alumni, Plymouth State University, Plymouth, New Hampshire. (3:55)
