This video is a tribute to the life of Tony D'Andrea, long time band director at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. He was a distinguished educator, musician, friend, and mentor to many students at UTC and beyond. He was on my mind when I composed this music the night before he passed. A huge thank you to all the personnel listed below for helping bring this massive project to fruition.
