There is a pristine loveliness in this original setting of a classic Reginald Heber Christmas/Epiphany text. With shimmering harmonies, this unaccompanied gem shines with expressive potential. Well-considered part writing lends an organic quality to the timbre of the piece and cradles the image-rich poetry with care. Brief in length, this choral carol makes an ideal addition to liturgical or concert programming.

Einige Bemerkungen zum Stuck: Das Buhnenbild sehr einfach. Die Stimmungen werden durch die Beleuchtung erzeugt. Links der Buhne (vom Publikum gesehen) dichtes Uferschilf, durch das ein wenig Blau, das Wasser, durchblickt. Es ist der Ort fur den kleinen blauen Bergsee. Halbrechts ein kahler Baum - der Sitz fur den alten Adler.Im Hintergrund eine grune Erhebung - hier wird das Liebespaar erscheinen.Danach fallt die Buhne ab und wird nicht mehr einsehbar.In der Ferne, also an der Ruckwand der Buhne, vier hohe Gebirgsgipfel. Sie bilden den Hintergrund fur die vier Bergseen. Von diesen werden nur die Kopfe zu sehen sein. Fur die vier verschiedenen Nationalitaten sind einzig die Kopfbedeckungen markant. Sie kennzeichnen einen Schotten, einen Franzosen, einen Spanier und einen Chinesen.Der kleine blaue Bergsee hat einen blauen wuschelkopf und ist wie ein bayrischer oder tiroler Alper gekleidet, tragt Lederbundhosen, weisses Hemd mit Hosentragern und blauen Strumpfe.Ein Wort zum Timing: Etwa in der Mitte des Vorspiels offnet sich der Vorhang und zeigt den Spielort. Nachdem sich das Publikum mit diesem vertraut gemacht hat, wird es dem Erzahler, einem Herrn im Abendanzug, unabgelenkt zuhoren.

Badlands occur throughout the world, and are represented by dramatic terrain created by sediment that is deposited in layers, then solidifies and is eroded over millions of years. These processes leave stark, but beautiful structures in a harsh and alien landscape. Badlands opens with a first theme that depicts the stark emptiness of the badland terrain. This moves to a brooding, mysterious second theme followed by variations on this theme. A brief lyrical theme and a return to the second theme follow. The piece ends with a return of the first theme for a dramatic finish.
Badlands occur throughout the world, but many of the most striking are in Canada and the United States. This dramatic terrain is created by sediment that is deposited in layers, then solidifies and is eroded over millions of years. These processes leave stark, but beautiful structures in a harsh and alien landscape. The regions known as badlands are frequently difficult to impossible to navigate on foot and are often considered to be sacred lands by cultures that live in these regions. Badlands opens with a first theme that depicts the stark emptiness of the badland terrain. This moves to a brooding, mysterious second theme followed by variations on this theme. A brief lyrical theme and a return to the second theme follow. The piece ends with a return of the first theme for a dramatic finish.I enjoyed writing this piece and hope your students will enjoy playing these contrasting styles. Additionally, I hope that you will find the piece beneficial in teaching important musical concepts.Peter Terry, 2018.

Commissioned by the South Dakota All-State Band, Banshee of the Badlands by Tyler S. Grant depicts the grandeur and mystique of Badlands National Park. Ethereal textures juxtaposed with quick-paced sections take the performers and listeners through a journey into the Badlands in search of paranormal activity. Highly programmatic! (4:00).
