Program Notes
The Rocky River is a 95-mile long river in the Piedmont of North Carolina and served as my inspiration for this exciting concert work. I am a proud North Carolina native and feel fortunate to live in one of the most beautiful states in the country. Rocky River Celebration is an example of my passion for writing fun and exciting music that is accessible to developing bands.
