This has become a staple of band literature. Claude Smith is well known for taking hymn tunes and creating wonderful pieces of music. Trumpet and trombone trios are featured in the opening statement, followed by free-flowing Rubato flute solo. A piccolo and bassoon duet follow in the next section. Variations of the theme appear in the fugato section, followed by the full chorale. The audience may sing the hymn tune during the full chorale. The triumphant ending features the horn section which leads to an emotional finale. God of Our Fathers is also available for full orchestra, and an edition for SATB Choir with piano/organ, which may be used in a massed band/orchestra/choir setting as well. An audience favorite and one of Smith’s most popular works.

Taking its title from a poem about grief and loss by Chrissie Pinney, Live On honors the life of band director Linda Mann, to whom the piece is dedicated. The piece begins with a pensive intro before shifting to a whimsical theme that brings about happy thoughts of a life well-lived. After a return to the poignant opening material, the music surges to a triumphant conclusion based on an augmented version of the whimsical theme.Live On was commissioned by Diplomat Middle School's staff, faculty and students, in Cape Coral, Florida, and is dedicated to the memory of their Director of Bands, Linda Mann. Director of Orchestras, Roland Forti, championed the commissioning of this piece to honor the life of Linda after her untimely passing in February of 2017. Linda Mann’s impact on the field of music education was profound and wide-reaching. She was a beloved member of the staff at Diplomat Middle School, as well as the music community of Cape Coral and the state of Florida. Linda was highly respected throughout the state, serving as recent past-president of the Florida Bandmasters Association.In discussing the type of piece the school wanted to honor Ms. Mann, they indicated the piece should “depict Linda’s personality: dynamic, sassy, yet thoughtful and almost mentor-like.†They wanted a piece that was upbeat, yet still had moments that were thoughtful, portraying the grief that the Diplomat Middle School community has suffered from the sudden loss of such a beloved teacher.After contemplating their thoughts, I did some research to find inspiration for the piece. This led me to poetry about grief and loss. In time, I stumbled upon a short, yet poignant poem that I felt perfectly depicted the sentiment that I wanted the piece to convey. That poem is entitled Live On by Chrissie Pinney.Live OnNow as I live onWithout youI hope to keepThe pieces of youThat I loved so dearlyYour mannerismsAnd compassionate characterAnd smiles through struggleSo that youMay live on too -Chrissie PinneyI reached out to Ms. Pinney, and she graciously agreed to allow me to quote her powerful poem in these notes. She expressed that she was deeply touched that her work would inspire me to write a piece in honor of Linda Mann.The piece begins with a poignant, pensive opening section. The use of the musical interval of a tritone between the first two openly voiced chords are used to represent the sadness we all feel from this type of loss. When I sat in front of my piano and started to work on this piece, my hands seemed to naturally and immediately play these first two chords, which set the process in motion of composing the piece.After the somber opening, the piece shifts to a whimsical theme that I hope brings about happy thoughts of Linda and her personality. It was also my intent, however, to include some musical dissonance in the theme that still reflected the bittersweet loss at the same time. The piece develops into a secondary theme that is a quasi inversion of the main fast theme. This section is followed by a return of the opening material, with snippets of the fast theme intertwined, before the piece builds to a triumphant, augmented presentation of the main theme in a lush form to complete the work.It is my hope that in some small way, this piece will bring comfort to those affected by the loss of Linda Mann, and that the music will allow her memory to Live On.–Larry ClarkLakeland, FL 2017.

The inspiration for this three-part work goes back to the International European Youth Wind Music Festival, of which the patron has been Jacob de Haan several times. It begins in a festive march tempo, then sacred music, instrumental groups playing off_x001E_stage and a little march for brass and _x001D_flutes. The third movement is a parade in which the various sections of the ensemble head towards the stage from different directions. Even without the effective choreography of the musicians, Call of the Valley is an impressive concert band composition.Jacob de Haan haalde zijn inspiratie voor dit driedelige werk bij het Hessische kuuroord Bad Orb en het tweejaarlijkse Blaasmuziekfestival van de Europese Jeugd, waarvan hij meerdere keren beschermheer was. In het werk verwerkte de componist verschillende e_x001D_ecten die betrekking hebben op het festival. Zo hoort men in de vallei verschillende orkesten door elkaar spelen, een indrukwekkend e_x001D_ect dat ook in de compositie werd verwerkt. Ook kan men ervoor kiezen om tijdens het werk het orkest op te splitsen en het podium te laten verlaten en marcherend weer richting podium te stappen. Een spectaculair en vernieuwend werk!Die Inspiration für dieses dreiteilige Werk geht auf das Internationale Blasmusikfest der Jugend Europas zurück, dessen Schirmherr schon mehrfach Jacob de Haan war. Es beginnt in festlich marschierendem Tempo, gefolgt von sakraler Musik, abseits der Bühne spielenden Instrumentengruppen und einem kleinen Marsch für Blechbläser und Flöten. Der dritte Satz ist eine Parade, bei der sich das geteilte Orchester aus verschiedenen Richtungen auf die Bühne zu bewegt. Auch ohne die effektvolle Positionierung der Musiker ist Call of the Valley ein eindrucksvolles Blasorchesterwerk.Call of the Valley s’ouvre sur un tempo festif en forme de marche. Des sonorités majestueuses dessinent un concert de musique sacrée. Puis deux groupes instrumentaux quittent la scène et exécutent leurs parties distance. Un groupe de saxophones interprète une valse, un autre groupe réunissant cuivres et _x001D_fl tes joue une marche. la fin de l’oeuvre, l’orchestre reprend les thèmes des deux groupes tandis que ceux-ci reviennent vers la scène. Une fois arrivés, ils restent face au public alors que résonne l’accord _x001C_final.Un festival di musica per _x001E_ati per banda giovanile che si tiene a Hesse in Germania, e al quale Jacob de Haan ha più volte partecipato in veste di giurato, è servito da ispirazione per comporre questo brano. L’inizio vede un tempo festivo che simboleggia l’arrivo delle bande. Sonorit maestose disegnano un concerto di musica sacra, seguite da suoni che evocano le interpretazioni di varie orchestre. Un gruppo di sax interpreta un piccolo valzer, un altro gruppo che unisce ottoni, _x001D_auti e ottavino suona una piccola marcia. Nel _x001E_finale dell’opera, l’orchestra riprende i temi dei due gruppi.

This piece was written to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Takayama Wind Orchestra, who also commissioned it. The historic city of Takayama draws numerous visitors from home and abroad, not just to see its well-preserved old houses and buildings but also because every year several historic processions take place, with beautiful floats. When these ride through the city, age-old melodies are heard played on wooden flutes, accompanied by muted drums. This image is evoked at the beginning of the work, followed by an archaic sounding melody in a typically Japanese pentatonic sequence, that develops throughout. In this challenging piece Eastern and Western influences alternate,creating a sensational and overwhelming musical effect! Dit werk is geschreven ter gelegenheid van het vijftigjarig bestaan van het Takayama Wind Orchestra, dat tevens de opdrachtgever was. De historische stad Takayama trekt jaarlijks talloze bezoekers uit binnen- en buitenland, niet alleen vanwege de goed bewaarde oude huizen en gebouwen die de stad rijk is, maar ook omdat er elk jaar een aantal historische optochten plaatsvinden. Wanneer die door de stad trekken, weerklinken eeuwenoude melodieën, gespeeld op houten fluiten en begeleid door doffe trommen. Dit beeld wordt opgeroepen aan het begin van het werk, gevolgd door een archa sch klinkende melodie in een typisch Japanse pentatonische tonenreeks, die zich in de loop van het werkverder zal ontwikkelen. In dit pittige werk wisselen oosterse en westerse invloeden elkaar af, met als resultaat een meeslepend en overweldigend muzikaal effect! Dieses Stück wurde aus Anlass des 50-jährigen Jubiläums des Takayama Wind Orchestra geschrieben, das dieses Werk auch in Auftrag gegeben hat. Die Altstadt von Takayama zieht jedes Jahr zahlreiche Besucher aus dem In- und Ausland an, nicht nur wegen der gut erhaltenen alten Häuser und Gebäude, sondern auch wegen der historischen Festumzüge, die dort stattfinden. Wenn diese durch die Stadt ziehen, erklingen uralte Melodien, die auf Holzflöten gespielt und von gedämpften Trommeln begleitet werden. Dieses Bild wird zu Beginn des Werks hervorgerufen, darauf folgt eine archaisch klingende Melodie mit einer typisch japanischen pentatonischen Sequenz, die sich im Laufe des Werkesweiterentwickelt. In diesem anspruchsvollen Werk wechseln sich östliche und westliche Einflüsse ab und erzeugen einen sensationellen und überwältigenden musikalischen Effekt! Cette Å?uvre a été commandée par le Takayama Wind Orchestra lâ??occasion de son 50e anniversaire. La ville historique de Takayama attire de nombreux visiteurs locaux et étrangers chaque année, non seulement gr ce aux maisons et b timents anciens bien conservés, mais aussi aux processions historiques qui y ont lieu. Lors de ces défilés, on entend des mélodies ancestrales jouées par des fl tes en bois et accompagnées de tambours en sourdine. Cette image est évoquée au début de lâ??Å?uvre, suivie dâ??une mélodie au son archa que basée sur une séquence pentatonique typiquement japonaise qui continue son développement tout au long de lâ??Å?uvre. Les influences orientales et occidentalessâ??alternent dans cette composition exigeante et créent ainsi un effet musical qui est sensationnel et extraordinaire ! Questo pezzo è stato scritto per celebrare il cinquantesimo anniversario della Takayama Wind Orchestra, che lo ha anche commissionato. La storica citt di Takayama attira numerosi visitatori anche all'estero, non solo per visitare le sue case storiche e gli edifici ben conservati, ma anche perché ogni anno si svolgono diverse processioni storiche, con bellissimi carri allegorici: Quando attraversano la citt , si sentono melodie secolari suonate su flauti di legno, accompagnate da tamburi. Questa immagine è evocata all'inizio del brano, seguita da una melodia dal suono arcaico in una sequenza pentatonica tipicamente giapponese, che si sviluppa lungo tutto il brano. In questo impegnativo pezzo si alternano influenze orientali e occidentali, creando un effetto musicale sensazionale e travolgente!
