Par ANDRE ARNESEN KIM. Cradle Hymn, a Christmas lullaby with imagery of Mary and her infant, was written for the Nidaros Cathedral Girl's Choir and conductor Anita Brevik in 2010, and later arranged for SATB and TTBB chorus. The Lyrics were written by Isaac Watts (1674-1748). This arrangement was written by Christian Aftreth Eriksen in 2021, commissioned by Bunberry High School, Australia. It is scored for large concert band, but is playable for smaller forces through clever cross cuing: Eb clarinet, Contrabass Clarinet, Baritone Saxophone, Contrabassson and Double Bass can all be considered ad lib. All Oboes, Bass Clarinet, Bassoons and all Horns are cross cued. A Soprano Saxophone part is provided to cover the Oboe solos, and should only be used if no Oboes are available. The choice of Vibraphone or Marimba is left up do the conductor. Vibraphone will provide more resonance in the ensemble, if needed. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Concert Band/Harmonie

Concerto for Alto Saxophone and Concert Band-The Pilgrim Concerto written for the 2012 World Music Contest Kerkrade is a highly demanding yet rewarding work for alto saxophone and wind band. It is one of a series of spiritual works by the composer which also includes Symphony inGreen. Sometimes minimalistic and at other times romantic it describes a pilgrim who is at times calmy meditative but also full of anxious impatience to reach his goal.

Edward Fairlie's Storm And Urge is a significant work for Wind Band and portrays a journey of emotional turbulence. The title comes from the German ?Sturm und Drang ? a literary and musical movement of the late 1700s which focused on extremes of emotion. Opening with a simple and reflective theme we are then taken through a range of emotional settings from uncertainty to resistance and then calm resolve and self-knowledge. With a variety of textures and vivid imagery this is a masterful work for the contemporary ensemble.Instrumentation: Piccolo Flute I Flute II Oboe Eb Clarinet Bb Clarinet I Bb clarinet II Bb clarinet III Bassclarinet Contrabass Clarinet Bassoon Soprano Saxophone Alto Saxophone I Alto Saxophone II Tenor Saxophone Baritone Saxophone Trumpet I Trumpet II.

Early in 1989 Jean Baily director of the Royal Conservatoire in Bruxelles asked his very close friend André Waignein to compose a piece which could be performed by the conservatoire's saxophone class. André Waignein was readily agreeable. Not only was his father a saxophone player but himself felt strongly attracted to the instrument and he was further encouraged into accepting the commission by his friend Alain Crepin saxophone teacher at the Bruxelles Conservatoire.The piece he composed consists of two movements hence the title. An elergy is expressed by means of a melody which is full with pronounced magnanimity full of spectacular musical freedom enabling thesoloist to express himself to the full. In this movement the melodic element is of the utmost importance.The capriccio the second movement is musically disconcerting. The band's accompaniment is particulary important. Due to the high notes the soloist brings this capriccio to a close with enthusiastic virtuosity.
