It was commissioned by Midwest\nin honor of a gentleman who has given so much in the fields of wind ensemble\nperformance and music education, touching thousands of lives through many years of\nservice. Thinking of what type of music would be appropriate to honor \"Chief\", I felt\nthat a tapestry of playful gestures and bold statements would most accurately reflect his\nknowledge and gifts that always become evident upon his ascending a podium. Some of\nmy most vivid musical memories come from performing as a member of one of his\nvarious bands at Bowling Green, including a truly inspiring performance at Midwest. To\nthis day, when I write music, I recall the thrill of the sound of an ensemble coming\ntogether to communicate through the power of music, and I aspire to climb to that level\nof excitement in the pieces that I write. Only a profound musician, such as he, can create\nsuch distinct memories in the minds and hearts of so many young musicians, striving to\ngrow and growing to play, in a field that I distinctly consider…\"Kelly's Field\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e--Jennifer Higdon\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lawdon Press","offers":[{"title":"Full Score","offer_id":45179094040655,"sku":"LAWD-510","price":66.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Study Score","offer_id":45179094073423,"sku":"LAWD-511","price":42.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of Parts","offer_id":45179094007887,"sku":"LAWD-509","price":451.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/pt\/products\/higdon-kellys-field-lawdon","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
