Program Notes

North Country March was commissioned by the Fieldstone Middle School Band, Montvale NJ (Dr. Charles Sommer, director) and the Woodcliff Middle School Band, Woodcliff Lake NJ (Ms. Kimberly Fleming, director). The piece was inspired by the beautiful northeastern corner of New Jersey, where the commissioning schools are located. North Country March combines strong and precise rhythmic writing with a tender and flowing lyricism, evocative of the natural beauty in this part of New Jersey and southeastern New York State.
