I had the pleasure of interviewing my former student Major Jim Keene about his experiences as an Army Officer conducting the Army’s premier musical ensembles.
Major Jim Keene took his musical training and talents into the Army, becoming conductor of the premier Army musical ensembles and now commanding the U.S. Army School of Music in Little Creek, Virginia. Jim was a former graduate student of mine, and I spoke with him when he returned to Dallas to conduct the Dallas Wind Symphony’s Fourth of July concert. Major Keene talks about musical life in the military, performances at state events, and the role of musical ensembles in supporting the troops and representing the United States throughout the world.
