FEATURE SHEP FIELDS RIPPLING
RHYTHM AT MCAA ANNUAL BANQUE

Shep Fields

"Rippling Rhythm" was the musical innovation that first put Shep on the map as a qualified conductor and musician. While the rhythmic style is older than most of the current band interpretations, it has endured through the years due to Shep's never-ending search for improvement. Today "Rippling Rhythm" ranks with the most easily recognized business signatures and trademarks in the world.

Another new idea decided Shep to form a new orchestra with a startlingly different instrumentation. Nine saxophones and five rhythm instruments were combined to make "New Music," a distinctive style that once brought Fields to the fore as a pioneer in modern music. After three years of marked success, "New Music" was abandoned due to public demand for the return of "Rippling Rhythm." Augmented and modernized, the "Rippling Rhythm" style has once again proven its appeal.

Year after year, Fields is setting a fast pace for his colleagues who are the first to admit that for all-around consistency, styling and quality, Shep Fields is unquestionably the foremost figure in modern music today.
