Irish Tune from County Derry, Mark Rogers
The Minnesota Symphonic Winds, Timothy Mahr, Conductor
The 2024 ASBDA National Convention, Minneapolis, MN
Grainger's Irish Tune from County Derry has stood the test of time for a number of reasons: colorful sonorities, straightforward accessibility, and a memorable climax. It is also a versatile piece, playable by both younger band and mature players, symphonic bands and wind ensembles. Irish Tune could balance a heavier work on the concert program, or it could be a thoughtful closing piece just before intermission. The broad appeal of this piece will undoubtedly assure its position atop the wind band repertoire for years to come.

I think this should deserve more likes, for how meaningful and impactful this really is. As a conductor, I have absolutely loved Robert's works, especially The Divine Comedy. He's such an amazing person, and I never want him to quit. His passion is massive.

Great clinic!👍🎶
This was wonderful! I'm sorry I couldn't watch it live, but thanks so much for making it available here. My first private composition lessons were with Mr. Jager in the early 1970s at TTU. I always looked forward to those lessons, knowing I would learn a lot and that he would make it enjoyable each time. I did some writing in the 1970s & 80s, had a few small successes, but then had a long period of not writing much, even though it was what I always wanted to do. I retired from a government job in 2014 and started writing again and studying with some excellent composers. I thank God for each day when I can sit down with my keyboard and Sibelius program and invite the creativity to flow. I've concentrated on brass quintet works and church choir pieces. I've self-published the brass works and they've sold in 35 states and 5 countries (besides the USA). I thank Mr. Jager for getting me started on this path . Whether it leads to success publicly or not, I'm having a blast doing it, I believe I'm using the gifts God has mercifully given me, and I plan to compose until I'm decomposing! (Jager humor??)
