Sandburg Reflections (for Mezzo-Soprano with Wind Ensemble): I. Good Babies Make Good Poems, II. Fog, III. Ezra (Pound), IV. Jazz Fantasia

Buckley, recently retired as Conductor of the United States Coast Guard Band, is also well known as a composer, arranger, and trumpet performer. In Sandburg Reflections, he has created intriguingly subtle and whimsical settings of several of Sandburg's poems for mezzo-soprano and wind ensemble, a much needed addition to our wind band repertoire. The comb binding creates a lay-flat book that is perfect for study and performance. Features I. Good Babies Make Good Poems, II. Fog, III. Ezra (Pound), IV. Jazz Fantasia.
