Par KIDD BRYAN. This is one to get excited about! In the style of a “patrol” march, THE ROAD TO CHANCELLORSVILLE takes us back to that pivotal point in history, the American Civil War. The Battle of Chancellorsville is regarded as Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s most brilliant victory, but the cost was so high that the Secessionist forces never really recovered. They were forced to surrender less than two years later. Opening with light percussion and just two piccolos (substitute two flutes if necessary) this bright and easy march builds relentlessly from beginning to end. March into history with THE ROAD TO CHANCELLORSVILLE. / Niveau : 2 / Marche de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band

Force a Superbe Mercy a Foible-La légende de Ratu Kidul nous emmène dans l?univers de la mythologie indonésienne sur l?île de Java.La reine des mers du Sud était au départ une princesse aussi bienveillante que belle. Fille du roi Prabu Munding Wangi la cour entière et ses sujets l?adoraient de même que son père le roi. Elle s?appelait Dewi Kadita mais on la surnommait souvent Dewi Srengenge ' la princesse en colère '. Munding Wangi souhaitait vivement avoir un héritier mais la mère de Dewi Kadita ne pouvait le satisfaire. Il prit donc une seconde femme nommée Poetri Moentiara qui était fort jalouse de la belle princesse et de sa mère. Elle supplia le roi de les bannir toutes deux de la cour mais ilrefusa car il aimait sa première femme et sa fille. Sa seconde femme lui donna un héritier mais le monarque ne céda pas. Alors Poetri Moentiara fit appel à une puissante sorcière Djahil et lui promit une forte récompense si elle arrivait à faire bannir Dewi Kandita et sa mère de la cour. Djahil réfléchit un moment et leur jeta un rapal (un maléfice) avec ces mots : « Que la lèpre vous touche toutes les deux ».La mère et sa fille furent bientôt affectées par cette terrible maladie. Selon la loi du pays elles devaient quitter la cour pour vivre dans une forêt au sommet des montagnes. Le coeur lourd le roi Munding Wangi appliqua la loi. Déjà couvertes de lésions les deux femmes gagnèrent la forêt. Une grande tristesse envahit le peuple sauf Poetri Moentiara la seconde femme du roi qui avait atteint son but. Dans la forêt vivait un ermite qui eut pitié de la mère et de sa fille. La reine littéralement malade de honte mourut au bout de quelques jours laissant Dewi Kandita seule au monde.

Finalement de plus en plus amère Dewi Kandita quitta l?ermite. Elle marcha vers le sud de village en village pour enfin arriver sur les côtes des mers du Sud. Elle grimpa sur une haute

All right. Admit it. When you were a kid some of your favorite music came from cartoonland. Who knows? It may have been cartoons that first introduced you to your favorite classical masters.

What could be more fun than Stephen Bulla's CARTOON CAPERS?
