O hyeah we play pieces by him all the time. I can't think of any off the top of my head but we joke about how many of his pieces we've played. Another Composer my band master buys a lot is Robert W. Smith

My band director knows Jim and he comes to all of out concerts. He writes high school music, also, it's usually ridiculous.

Mr. Swearingen's a pretty nice guy. He came to visit our school because he wanted our band to sightread a piece he was working on. I believe it was called Eiger. I thought it was pretty. Mr. Swearingen even told us the story behind his piece saying he imagined some guy climbing a mountain. Overall, it was fun. ^^
