Description:
Inamere for twelve trumpets was composed in 2011, commissioned by the Marine Corps Forces Pacific Band, to honor CW04 (Chief Warrant Officer 4) James Ford. During his thirty years of service in the United States Marine Corps, Jim Ford directed the Marine Corps music program at headquarters in Washington, D.C. As a respected conductor, he led the Marine Corps All-Star Jazz Band on its tours through the Midwestern United States, among other engagements. After leaving the military, he served as music director and conductor of the Rappahannock Pops Orchestra in Virginia. "Inamere" was premiered in 2011 by the Marine Corps Trumpet Ensemble at the International Trumpet Guild conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In 2016, the work was recorded by trumpet students at The Juilliard School under the direction of Raymond Mase and released on the album "Notes From Faraway Places" (Summit Records DCD 681).
