All the While was inspired by a very special person in Tyler Arcari's life. Directors will be happy to find many opportunities for emotional and passionate playing with plenty of fun in the middle for young bands.  All the While gives students a number of chances to work on expressive playing during the beginning and ending sections, and offers a light rhythmic middle section for contrast.
Program Notes:All the While is a bit of a personal piece for me. I was inspired to write it by a very special person in my life. It might be a young-band piece but I feel that it has the capacity for great emotion and passionate playing as well as a little fun in the middle. Sometimes it is difficult to tell people how you feel, even if you have known them for a long time. I think sometimes we say in our heads that “I have felt this way for a long time,” and all the while never being able to put it to words.About the work:The piece opens with a flute and alto saxophone duet. This melody trades off at m. 10 with the addition of new voices and harmonies building in intensity all the way to m. 28. I personally like to use extended phrases in this section, though it looks like it would just utilize four-measure phrases. I feel this adds to the momentum building in dynamic intensity. Measure 28 is a subito change beginning with a prominent Timpani solo. The following section should be played as lightly as possible to avoid a lumbering feel. In mm. 68- 70, the agogic accents should not be very heavy, but more pointed in their momentum to m. 70.Measures 70–76 should be taken with metric liberty bringing out all of the moving parts in the low brass. The low brass really adds the foundation of momentum for the rest of the band here. Measure 76 to the end, though a repetition of material from the beginning, should be played as the high point of the piece and familiar conclusion.

Alan Turing is considered the father of modern computational science and much, if not all, of our modern computer technology and the connectivity that we now take for granted is born of the work of this one great, but troubled man. His famous test was designed to prove whether artificial intelligence (AI) could successfully imitate human thought. The single movement of The Turing Test is essentially non-programmatic, but it does seek to show something of the emotion and colour of Turing’s life in its different sections. The composer employs bi-tonality and complex rhythms to show opposing worlds colliding. At the end of each test, we must decide: has true AI beenborn?

Alan Turing wordt beschouwd als de vader van de moderne computerwetenschap. Veel, zo niet alle, moderne computertechnologie en connectiviteit die we nu vanzelfsprekend vinden, vloeien voort uit het werk van deze ene geweldige maar getroebleerde man. The Turing Test is in wezen een niet-programmatische compositie aan één stuk, maar in de verschillende gedeelten komt wel iets van de emotie en kleuren van Turings leven terug. De componist heeft geprobeerd bitonaliteit en complexe ritmes te gebruiken om naast elkaar bestaande werelden te laten botsen. Aan het slot van elke test moeten we ons afvragen: is hier sprake van ware kunstmatige intelligentie?

Alan Turing wird als Vater der modernen Informatik angesehen, und vieles, wenn nicht sogar alles, was für uns inzwischen an moderner Computer- und Informationstechnologie selbstverständlich ist, basiert auf der Arbeit dieses großartigen, aber sorgenschweren Mannes. The Turing Test ist im Grunde genommen kein programmatisches Werk, aber es möchte Emotionen und Facetten von Turings Leben in einem einzigen Satz, der aus verschiedenen Abschnitten besteht, wiedergeben. Der Komponist hat versucht, Bitonalität und komplexe Rhythmen zu verwenden, um das Aufeinanderprallen der verschiedenen Welten darzustellen. Am Ende jedes Tests müssen wir entscheiden, ob wahre künstlicheIntelligenz geboren wurde.

Alan Turing est estimé être le père des sciences numériques modernes et la plupart, sinon l’intégralité, des technologies et des connectivités informatiques modernes établies aujourd’hui sont nées du travail de ce grand homme troublé. The Turing Test n’est en fait pas programme mais cherche dépeindre l’émotion et la couleur de la vie de Turing dans les sections différentes, en un seul mouvement. Le compositeur utilise la bitonalité et des rythmes complexes pour illustrer deux mondes opposés qui se heurtent. A la fin de chaque test, nous devons décider : la vraie intelligence artificielle, est-elle née ?
