So thanks to Dr. Jay Dorfman’s (while he was still at Kent)class this past summer, I created an interdisciplinary unit on the Trail of Tears to enrich my ensemble’s studying of two pieces of music, “The Trail of Tears” by James Barnes and “Etowah” by Brian Balmages. For those of you unfamiliar with the piece by Barnes, I highly recommend it. It is not incredibly difficult music – but it is uplifting, dramatic, great music that has been crafted by one of the greatest band writers of the past 50 years. Etowah is a new piece from FJH this year about the Hightower Trail that once connected Cherokee and Creek lands in the south.
