Brian T. Field

[3] Field adopts an eclectic fusion[4] in his musical approach, demonstrating a “versatility that is both striking and impressive,”[5] blending lyricism with driving rhythms to create a harmonious confluence of post-romanticism, minimalism, and jazz that are modulated based upon the particular topic of the work.

Gorgeous songs complemented by great choral and solo singing, however, triumph over these feelings, in a program selected and sequenced with uncommon care, with Field drawing on his consummate musicianship fueled by hopefulness.

"[9] As part of the Vocal Works compilation, Field addressed issues of immigration through musical parody of both right- and left-wing extremes in his composition “Let’s Build a Wall!"

Through the music and reflection, we can form a greater self-awareness of how we all need to consider immigration issues.”[10] The Whole Note commented that through this work "Field shows that he isn’t afraid to wear his emotions on his sleeve, nor does he shrink away from the bitterness of social commentary".

[11] In 2021, Field composed a suite for solo piano on the theme of climate change, dedicated to fellow Juilliard alum Sony Classical artist, Kay Kun Eun Kim.
