Suite from the Incidental Music. Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809 - 1847) a composé la musique de la pièce de théâtre de William Shakespeare A Midsummer Night’s Dream (Le Songe d’une Nuit d’Été) à deux moments différents. En 1826, à l’âge de 16 ans, il écrit une ouverture de concert (Op. 21). Seize ans plus tard, en 1842, il composa la musique de scène (opus 61) pour le roi Frédéric-Guillaume IV de Prusse, dans laquelle il incorpora l’ouverture existante. L’ouverture a été créée à Stettin (alors en Prusse, aujourd’hui Szczecin, Pologne) le 20 février 1827, sous la direction de Carl Loewe. Mendelssohn a dû parcourir 80 miles à travers une tempête de neige déchaînée pour se rendre au concert, qui est devenu sa première apparition publique. La première représentation britannique de l’ouverture fut dirigée par Mendelssohn lui-même le 24 juin 1829, aux Argyll Rooms de Londres. Après le concert, Thomas Attwood a reçu la partition de l’ouverture pour la garde, mais l’a laissée dans un taxi et n’a jamais été retrouvée. Mendelssohn a réécrit plus tard l’ouverture entièrement de mémoire. / Date parution : 2022-01-14/ Répertoire / Concert Band/Harmonie

Philip Sparke a composé cette pièce pour le Western Plains Wind Consortium placé sous la direction de son fondateur Daniel Baldwin. La création fut assurée par l?Orchestre d?Harmonie de l?Université d?État de l?Oklahoma Panhandle (Dr. Matthew C. Saunders direction) le 1er décembre 2009 au Centennial Theatre à Goodwell en Oklahama (États-Unis). Les orchestres membres du Western Plains Wind Consortium qui ont contribué à la commande de cette œuvre sont :Garden City High School Symphonic Band - Ryan Elliot & Daniel Baldwin directionSouthwestern Oklahoma State University Wind Ensemble - James South directionPanhandle State University Band - Matthew Saunders direction Holton High School Band - Donald McDaniel directionHolcomb High School Band - Paul White directionBethel College Band - Timothy Shade directionGarden City Community College Band - Daniel Baldwin directionLa commande stipulait que l?œuvre devait synthétiser une ambiance hivernale sans référence au cycle de la Nativité. Philip Sparke a réalisé une scène d?hiver en pleine campagne. A Winter?s Tale s?ouvre avec une série d?accords soutenus joués par les bois et colorés par le timbre cristallin des cloches tandis qu?un saxophone alto chante une complainte crépusculaire. Un passage orchestral court mais dense prélude à l?exposition du thème principal. Les couleurs douces et vaporeuses enveloppent les champs et les forêts enneigés. L?orchestre reprend le thème tandis que l?on entend au loin un tintement de grelots annonçant le passage imminent d?une troïka. Une fois passée la musique s?apaise et le thème principal revient avant de laisser la place au motif d?ouverture qui vient conclure la trame musicale.

Par OKPEBHOLO SHAWN E.. Shawn Okpebholo?s Heritage, in the Edition Peters Concert Band Series, evokes moods, events and sounds (including West African drumming and indigenous melodies) from an ethnomusicological research visit the composer undertook to Nigeria. One of the primary musical themes of the work is an adaptation of a song that comes from the Esan people, a small ethnic group in the southern part of Nigeria and the tribe to which the composer has deep historical and family ties. The Esan language is poetic in nature and, at various moments in the work, the musicians chant the text from an Esan song: Ekine leleyea do obhimen la doeki nalo (My investment in you is paid off. Because of your hard work, your future is bright). Heritage is a revised version of a work previously entitled This is Africa, which was commissioned by Professor Marcellus Brown and the Boise State University Symphonic Winds for the 2011 National CBDNA Convention and is dedicated to the memory of Dr Harry Begian. / Date parution : 2022-05-31/ Répertoire / Concert Band
