In 1878, on a commission from his publisher, Anton n Dvorák wrote a series of eight Slavonic dances. Modelled on Johannes Brahmsâ?? famous Hungarian Dances, although in contrast to Brahmsâ?? work, Dvorák used no original melodies. Wil van der Beek has arranged No. 7, a brisk 2/4 dance, as well as No. 8, a passionate, exuberant furiant in 3/4. In 1878 schreef Dvoøák op verzoek van zijn uitgever een serie van acht Slavische dansen. Daarbij zouden de beroemde Hongaarse dansen van Brahms als voorbeeld moeten dienen. Dvoøák had echter zijn eigen opvattingover het kunstzinnigvormgeven van (volks)dansen. Waar Brahms meerdere bestaande melodieën van dansen uitHongarije gebruikte, beperkte Dvoøák zich tot karakteristieke ritmische patronen van dansvormen uit zijn vaderland. Oorspronkelijk zijn de Slavischedansen gecomponeerd voor klavier vierhandig. Vrij spoedig maakte Dvoøák zelf een versie voor orkest, waarmee hij wereldroem vergaarde. Het succes was zo groot (zeker ook in financieel opzicht voor de uitgever!) dat een tweedeserie van acht dansen volgde: opus 72 in het oeuvre van Dvoøák.Kenmerken:Dans nr. 4 (Tempo di menuetto, 3/4 maat)Dit is een feestelijke, vrolijke sousedská (te beschouwen als de Tsjechische variant op het menuet), een driedeligedans waarvan de hoekdelen gracieus zijn en het middendeel voor een levendig contrast zorgt.Dans nr. 7 (Allegro assai, 2/4 maat)Dvoøák lijkt hier ge nspireerd te zijn geweest door een snelle dans genaamd skocná. Het hoofdthemawerkt humoristisch doordat het in de vorm van een canon wordt gepresenteerd.Dans nr. 8 (Presto, 3/4 maat)Dit is een temperamentvolle furiant, vol vreugde en uitgelatenheid, gevolgd door een rustiger middendeel, datuitmondtin een zeer krachtig en snel slot.Im Jahre 1878 schrieb Anton n Dvorák im Auftrag seines Verlegers eine Reihe von acht slawischen Tänzen. Als Vorbild dienten die beru?hmten Ungarischen Tänze von Johannes Brahms, im Gegensatz zu diesem verwendete Dvorák jedoch keine originalen Melodien. Wil van der Beek bearbeitete fu?r dieses Arrangement die Nr. 7, einen schnellen Tanz im 2/4-Takt, sowie die Nr. 8, einen leidenschaftlichen, u?berschwänglichen Furiantâ?? im 3/4-Takt. En 1878, Anton n Dvorák composa une série de huit danses slaves. Contrairement Brahms, Dvorák sâ??est contenté dâ??emprunter aux danses de son pays natal leurs caractéristiques rythmiques. Wil van der Beek a réalisé un arrangement de deux dâ??entre elles : la danse n° 7, une vive skocná dont le thème mélodique est écrit en forme de canon et la danse n° 8, fougueuse et énergique qui est menée presto. La partie centrale est apaisée. Le _x001C_finale est vif et puissant.Nel 1878 Antonin Dvorák compone su commissione una serie di otto danze slave. Anche se le celebri Danze Ungheresi di Brahms gli servirono da modello, Dvorák non utilizzò melodie originali. Wil van der Beek ha arrangiato la Danza n.7 caratterizzata da un tempo veloce in 2/4 e la Danza n. 8, un furiant passionale in 3/4.

Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) made his first sketches for material that would later find its way into Cassazione at the end of the 1890s; there are already hints of it among the sketches for the First Symphony, completed in 1899. He conducted the first performance of Cassazione as the opening number in a concert of his music held at the Helsinki University Hall on February 8, 1904. Described as ballad for orchestra, the work is structured in five episodes. Robert J. Ambrose's transcription for wind band is based on the original full symphony orchestra version (the full score published by Fennica Gehrman, ISMN 9790550112353). This transcription gives an opportunity to perform the work with smaller ensembles (down to 28 musicians) as well as full wind band. See the sample pages for instrumentation and performance notes.

A dream inspired Charles Tomlinson Griffes (1884-1920) to compose The Pleasure Dome of Kubla Kahn, based on the poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The composer originally wrote it for piano in 1912. Four years later, at the encouragement of Ferruccio Busoni, he expanded it into a shimmering symphonic poem. Following the first performance in the autumn of 1919 under the direction of Pierre Monteux, it achieved great success and remains one of his most frequently-performed works today. The work reveals the influence of French impressionism, meandering through the lush gardens of the legendary palace. This edition by Gregory Vaught is part of the Nieweg Performance Editions series. Instrumentation: 3(3rd dPicc).2+EH.2+BCl.3: 4.3.3.1: Timp.Perc(3): Hp(2).Clst.Pno: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set).

This festive holiday medley of traditional carols is arranged into 6/8 time throughout. Using holiday favorites such as In Dolce Jubilo, The Sussex Carol, I Saw Three Ships, Three Kings Of Orient, Still, Still, Still, Jesu Bambino, and Here We Come a-Wassailing, Gary Fagan gives us a wonderful musical addition to the holiday repertoire as well as a valuable teaching tool. The use of recognizable melodies engages prior knowledge to teach and reinforce the concept of compound meter. Highly recommended!

Nordanvind is a tour de force symphonic rhapsody that is built on three Scandinavian folk songs. Composer Carl Strommen has composed these Viking-influenced melodies into a concert setting that brings out all of the history of the Scandinavian people. The piece is at times bold and aggressive, at other times beautiful. Carl employs all of the instrumental colors of the concert band to create a new work for more advanced ensembles.Modern Scandinavians are descendants of the Vikings, an adventuresome people who were known for their love of the sea, their naval prowess, and as fierce fighters . The Scandinavian Vikings were warriors from Denmark, Norway, and Sweden who traded, raided and settled in various parts of Europe, Russia, the North Atlantic islands, and the northeastern coast of North America .Starting around 1850, over one million Swedes left their homeland for the United States in search of religious freedom and open farm land . Augustana College was founded in 1860 by graduates of Swedish universities and is located on the Mississippi River in Rock Island, Illinois . Home of the “Vikings,†Augustana College is the oldest Swedish- American institution of higher learning in the United States . This powerful and lively piece takes inspiration from Swedish history and from Swedish folk songs and hymns .Havsdrake (Dragon of the Sea)The Nordanvind or “North Wind†blows a cold wind during a journey of a group of courageous Viking rowers . The “Dragon-ship†or long ships designed for raiding and war was a sophisticated, fast ship able to navigate in very shallow water . To musically portray these magnificent seafaring vessels, the director is encouraged to use an Ocean Drum (or a rain stick) during the introduction . Wind players may consider blowing air through their instruments to suggest the North wind . Adding men’s voices to accompany the haunting low brass and percussive “rower†sounds can be helpful in creating the dark and ominous portrayal of Viking adventurers .Slangpolska efter Byss - KalleIn Sweden, a “polska†is a partner dance where the dancers spin each other (släng in Swedish “to sling or tossâ€) . Slangpolska efter Byss - Kalle is attributed to Byss-Kalle, who was a notable Swedish folk musician, specifically a nyckelharpa player . Slangpolska efter Byss - Kalle is a traditional “polska†dance song most often played on the Nyckelharpa or keyed fiddle and is commonly heard in pubs and at festive events throughout Sweden . Approximately 10,000 nyckelharpa players live in Sweden today, and the Swedish and the American Nyckelharpa Associations are dedicated to this Swedish National instrument . The director is encouraged to share video and audio examples of the nyckelharpa playing the original Slangpolska efter Byss - Kalle .Tryggare Kan Ingen Vara (Children of the Heavenly Father)Tryggare Kan Ingen Vara Is a traditional Swedish melody, possibly of German roots, and was believed to be arranged as a hymn by the Swedish hymn writer, Karolina Wilhelmina Sandell-Berg (1832–1903) . As a daughter of a Swedish Lutheran minister, she began writing poems as a teenager and is said to have written over 1,700 different texts . There are two different accounts as to the inspiration for this hymn . The first story is that Lina (as she was called) wrote the hymn to honor her father and to say thank you to him for raising her and protecting her . A second belief is of her witnessing the tragic death of her father . She and her father were on a boat, when a wave threw her father overboard . It was said that the profound effect of watching her father drown is what caused Lina to write the text to this hymn . Although this is a treasured song to people of Swedish descent everywhere, it speaks to all people about a father tending and nourishing his children, and protecting them from evil .SPS71FThe Augustana College Concert BandFounded in 1874, the Augustana Band program is one of the oldest continuously active collegiate band programs in the country .
