My Heaven Of Love

“My Heaven of Love” is a charming cornet solo that transports audiences to the golden era of “concert in the park” programs. Composed by renowned bandmaster Edwin Franko Goldman for virtuoso soloist Del Staigers, this piece embodies the lyrical warmth and expressive grace characteristic of early 20th-century American band music. The arrangement by Leonard B. Smith—himself a celebrated cornetist and successor to Staigers in the Goldman Band—preserves the solo’s nostalgic elegance while offering a showcase for today’s performers. Whether featuring a guest artist or highlighting an outstanding student, “My Heaven of Love” brings timeless beauty and heartfelt expression to any concert program.
