Description |
Battle of the Ewoks was transcribed and adapted by Ken McCoy for the US Army Field Band in 1987 presumably under Commander William Clark. It is unspecified if this score is a specific song from the Star Wars Return of the Jedi or later Ewok movies. The song was composed by John Williams. Ken McCoy graduated from Greenville High School in Greenville, Ohio. After earning his degree in music education, he taught instrumental music for four years in public schools. In 1977, he accepted a position with the United States Field Band as a staff arranger and eventually was promoted to Chief Arranger. McCoy's arrangements and compositions have been performed in all 50 US states and several foreign countries. In 1995, he joined the Ohio State University Marching Band Staff and arranged at least one full half time show per year for the band culminating with his 23rd show in 2017. Ken McCoy passed away January 11, 2018. |
