Wolverine Trail is a concert march for beginning bands and is rather helpful in introducing beginners to the march form and style. This piece is based in the key of Eb major and uses only the first seven notes taught in most method books. It is also rhythmically accessible to beginners, as simple eighth-note combinations are the most difficult rhythms in this march. The piece follows standard march form except that is does not modulate at the trio section.
When writing this piece, I was thinking of my beginning band students at Polk County Middle School. Our school is located at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and is surrounded by dense pine forests. The mascot of our school is rather fittingly the wolverine; hence, our school is located on the street named “Wolverine Trail.” Learning to be a musician is not an easy trial, as it requires hard work, dedication, and endurance. However, the trail to becoming a musician is full of rewarding and breathtaking experiences. As I wrote this piece, I was inspired by the rugged beauty of our school’s location and also how I am helping my beginner students to start on the trail to becoming mature musicians.Wolverine Trail is a concert march for beginning bands and is rather helpful in introducing beginners to the march form and style. This piece is based in the key of Eb major and uses only the first seven notes taught in most method books. It is also rhythmically accessible to beginners, as simple eighth-note combinations are the most difficult rhythms in this march. The piece follows standard march form except that is does not modulate at the trio section which begins at m. 57. It is my hope that this piece will help you and your beginners start your own musical trailblazing.

This composition is based on the life of the German cavalry general Hans Michael Elias von Obentraut (1574-1625), who was known for his nerve, loyalty and courage. The figure Van Obentraut is closely connected to the town of Seelze, where he died a heroic death and where a monument was erected in his honor. The work consists of four movements in which various aspects of this historical figure are featured. What is extra special about this work is the fact that its firs movement (Hymn for a Hero) had been made available as an easy version for flexible band. This makes it possible for a youth of beginner band to play along with a band of adults or advanced players. This hymn can also be played as a separate piece.

Concert Band/Harmonie - Grade 3

These eight little solos are intended to supply easy, descriptive pieces for the beginner horn player which are not only beneficial for technical development but will also be useful performance material. The tunes are characteristically horn-like in nature.

A Huntingdon Celebration ist eine kurze, lebhafte Ouvertüre. In dieser abwechslungsreichen Komposition erscheinen verschiedene Themen und Phrasen einmal in einzelnen Instrumentengruppen, dann spielt wieder das gesamte Blasorchester. Die Fanfare der Eröffnung rundet schließlich ein Werk ab, mit dem Sie Ihr Ensemble von vielen Seiten präsentieren können. So setzen Sie Ihre Musiker ins rechte Licht!

L’Orchestre d’Harmonie du Comté du Huntingdonshire, situé dans l’Est de l’Angleterre, a été fondé en 1993. En 2001, les musiciens invitent le compositeur Philip Sparke, pour un week-end de travail consacré ses œuvres. De cette collaboration chaleureuse, naît l’idée de passer commande d’une pièce pour le 10ème anniversaire de la création de la formation, célébré en 2003. Philip Sparke leur compose A Huntingdon Celebration.Cette ouverture courte et vive débute avec une introduction écrite en forme de fanfare qui s’inspire du thème principal, exposé, dans un premier temps, par les clarinettes et les saxophones, puis par l’Orchestre d’Harmonie en entier. Cuivres et boisétablissent une conversation musicale qui mène l’introduction d’un second thème tout en legato, sur un accompagnement bouillonnant en croches. Le passage central, plus lent, développe un choral dans les registres ténors. Le tempo premier revient ensuite et le thème initial est exposé nouveau, amorçant la reprise de la fanfare d’ouverture qui vient conclure l’œuvre sur une note brillante.

Questo breve e vivace brano d’apertura è ideale per iniziare un concerto. L’incipit è scandito da un tema in stile di fanfara eseguito dai clarinetti e dai sassofoni, sostenuto dall’intera banda. Dopo un corale centrale più lento, ritorna il tempo originale seguito dalla fanfara d’apertura che riappare portando il brano ad una trionfale chiusura.
