This piece is amazing. My Wind Ensemble director commissioned it for his mother. She was am amazing woman. I was lucky enough to have a community band directed by her son. This piece is gorgeous.
I think the nicest compliment I ever received as a "grown woman" was when Mr. Perry's father recognized me, and said I was a Swan. It was at a marching band reunion. It was very much appreciated.
