Stratoscape, by Swiss composer Gauthier Dupertuis, is a colorful and contrasting work for wind orchestra, depicting the view of our earth as seen from the stratosphere. This voyage into the sky is pictural, but also metaphorical, as it is also about distancing from our world. The work is divided into five sections: I Ignition!, II Broadness & The Big Blue, III Stars Shining from Down to Above, IV Destructive Forces, V One and Only Home Five contrasting movements, starting with Ignition in which Gauthier Dupertuis tries to musically convey the majesty of our planet seeing if from the atmosphere, ending with One and Only Hope, as the title say, a message of hope. In between three movements that depict the broadness of the landscapes of our planet (second movement), the fragility of our earth at night with only the stars shining (third movement). But also sheer reality in the fourth movement when the composer translates into music the damage caused toour planet by us human beings. Stratoscape: a fantastic view of Planet Earth!

Earth, Wind & Fire was formed by jazz drummer Maurice White, whose aim was to mix various music styles to produce a unique sound. Combined with excellent song writing and fine performances this sound made Earth, Wind & Fire one of the most influential soul groups of the seventies. In subsequent decades they experienced varying success but this medley reflects the heyday of this legendary group. In his job as staff arranger with the Royal Marine Band of the Dutch Navy, Peter Kleine Schaars wrote many top-class arrangements. The talent of the musicians in the band made it possible to write in such a way that they closely resembled the original works. Consequently, this medley shines just like the original versions by Earth, Wind & Fire. Four famous songs have been used: In the Stone, Got to Get You into My Life, After the Love Has Gone and September.

ISBN 9781470649531. UPC: 038081570310. English. Melody from Piae Cantiones (1582).
The 14th-century carol, Personent hodie, is both mysterious and powerful. On This Day Earth Shall Ring---a festive processional on the ancient melody arranged by Scott Watson---explores both aspects. Beginning quietly, the modal tune emerges over a chant drone with rustic, medieval percussion. Before long, the piece takes on the joyous character alluded to in the tune's most familiar English text setting, On This Day Earth Shall Ring (written by composer, Jane Joseph, a student of Gustav Holst). As the work draws to an ebullient close, all the stops are pulled with resounding brass and ringing metallic percussion! Whether used as a striking concert opener or a jubilant final selection, On This Day Earth Shall Ring will add festive élan to your winter/holiday program!

This piece was commissioned by Oyama City Symphonic Wind Orchestra to commemorate their 30th Anniversary. The composer was inspired by Oyama City’s slogan, ‘water, green and earth’, to write this festive fanfare. Following a gentle opening a fanfare leads to a magnifi cent chorale. This turns into a quickly moving energetic section with irregular rhythm. This is a short but dramatic piece that will make a brilliant concert opener. Beim Komponieren dieses Werkes ließ sich Satoshi Yagisawa von den Schlagwörtern Wasser“, grün“ und Erde“ aus dem Motto der auftraggebenden Stadt Oyama inspirieren. Mit einer sanften Einleitung, nach der die Fanfare zu einem prachtvollen Choral anschwillt, um dann ein kraftvolles, schnelles Thema hervorzubringen, bietet Fanfare - The Benefaction from Sky and Mother Earth alles, was es zu einer wirkungsvollen Konzerteröffnung braucht. l’introduction, expressive et douce, succède une fanfare qui chemine vers l’exposition d’un magnifi que thème choral. La ligne mélodique qui suit est puissante et vive. Une oeuvre effi cace pour ouvrir un concert en finesse et en puissance. Questo brano è stato commissionato dalla Oyama City Symphonic Wind Orchestra in Giappone, per celebrare il 30° anniversario di fondazione. Nello scrivere il brano, il compositore si è ispirato allo slogan di Oyama: acqua, verde e terra. L’introduzione è discreta ed è seguita da una fanfara che accompagna il brano ad un splendido corale. Il brano diventa poi più energico e veloce. Un brano breve, ma di grande impatto, tipico dello stile di Yagisawa.

Moving Heaven and Earth consists of a theme and 4 variations; although the theme is original it contains a phrase heavily influenced by a 14-bar passage from the Libera Me in Faure's Requiem. It is a sequence that the composer finds harmonically compelling and, although it is never quoted directly, it appears in altered form in the theme and each of the variations. In the original, the passage is set to the words: Quando c''li movendi sunt et terra (When the heavens and the earth shall be moved) which gave inspiration for the title.

Fresh from the loss of his oldest daughter Maria Mahler, and knowing he had a serious heart condition, Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) crafted Das Lied von der Erde (The Song of the Earth) in the years 1908 and 1909. The first performance took place on November 20, 1911 at the Tonhalle in Munich, conducted by Bruno Walter. It encompasses six settings of old Chinese poems, four of them by the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai, loosely translated into German by Hans Bethge. Conscious of his own mortality, Mahler filled his orchestral song cycle with themes of resignation, fading beauty, and autumn loneliness. The last song, roughly the same length as the previous five movements combined, serves as a sprawling, yet deeply personal farewell to both love and life. Instrumentation: 3(3rd dPicc)+Picc.3(3rd dEH).2+BCl+Eb.3(3rd dCBsn: 4.3.3.1: Timp.Perc(4-5): 2Hp.Clst.Mand: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Soli T, A (or Bar). Movements: 1. Das Trinklied vom Jammer der Erde (The Drinking Song of Earth's Sorrow); 2. Der Einsame im Herbst (Autumn Loneliness); 3. Von der Jugend (Youth); 4. Von der Schönheit (Beauty); 5.

Combining a text by Charles Anthony Silvestri with syllables inspired by the song tradition (joik) of the Sami people in Scandinavia, Sing the earth is a tribute to our common home, the earth, as well as to music and the different musical traditions and cultures around the world. Upbeat, syncopated and celebratory outer sections sandwich a slower, more contemplative middle section, which describes the beauty of our planet. A showstopper piece which will be enjoyed by singers and listeners alike.
