Joe Utterback completed a commission by Thomas Marshall—faculty member at the College of William & Mary, Williamsburg, Virginia, and organist of the Williamsburg United Methodist Church—to honor Marilyn Mason at her retirement concert, September 30, 2013, in Hill Auditorium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, as part of the 53rd Conference on Organ Music.
The work, Dance of Celebration (Mambo for Marilyn), ends with a pedal passage using the Michigan “Fight Song.” An ossia pedal score for the fight song is supplied with the score, available from Jazzmuze, Inc. for $10, plus $6 postage.
