Robert Ward (1917-2013) was a significant figure in North Carolina, Durham, and even Duke. This overture was written in 1946 while he was in the army at the close of WWII, stationed in the Philippines and Okinawa. He was an army band leader, and the big-band-swing context makes its way into the piece. You can find an interview in which he mentions it at https://www.arts.gov/audio/robert-ward (transcript available).
