The Mystic Trumpeter

A powerful statement for concert band!  Composed in memory of trumpeter/conductor/educator Dr. Timothy E. Swinehart, this remarkable and uplifting new work by James Curnow will be an excellent finale piece for the musically mature band.  As you will see as you begin to prepare it, this is an exceptionally dramatic expression of the musical art which fully utilizes the modern ensemble. Inspired by a poem by the great Walt Whitman, The Mystic Trumpeter is indeed a fitting tribute to the life and work of a fine and influential musician.
