Last spring, a Southborough author and mother published her chronicle of the difficult and bittersweet journey of Trottier’s 2012-2013 Big Band and its beloved leader. This fall, the book was made available for reading on Kindles.
Author Meredith O’Brien shares that the release includes audio segments:
- an interview with the tititular band leader, Jamie Clark
- a recording of the Trottier Middle School premiering “Kaleidoscope” (the composition written in honor of Eric Green)
- and, from the Eric Green celebratory service on June 2013, the speech by Gretchen Hartnett.
