In the music world, as in life, timing is everything. Just ask J. Todd Frazier, the Houston-based composer who both has a passion for and shares a first name with one Thomas Jefferson, and who heard in 2012 that the opera star Renee Fleming was looking for a patriotic piece to perform for an April concert at The Kennedy Center.
