In 1917 two ships collided in the harbor of Halifax, Canada. The resulting explosion devastated most of the city.

This music is reverent and reflective, with emotional ebbs and swells and an eventual build to a stirring theme of hope and inner strength. Ideal as a festival or memorial piece, this work is an opportunity for your ensemble to explore softer dynamics, expression and nuance. Dur: 5:05.

As the title implies, Angel Echoes uses a lot of echo effects throughout, and is based on the interval of a descending perfect fifth. The piece begins with a lush statement of the subtle angel theme, which is used throughout the piece and ultimately as the climactic material later in the work. With teachable material steeped in musicality, this remarkable new work for developing ensembles will not disappoint.

March Prelude: Alnwick Town was commissioned by the Alnwick Playhouse Concert Band (with Ray Thompson as conductor) to celebrate their first 25 years. It opens majestically with answering phrases between various sections of the band, leading to a faster march-like section its main theme echoes the rhythms of the opening material. A bridge passage featuring snippets for saxophones and trumpets leads to a new theme, more legato in nature and repeated after a change of key. The bridge passage returns to herald a restatement of the main theme before the opening material reappears to close the work with a flourish.March Prelude: Alnwick Town werd geschreven in opdracht van de Alnwick Playhouse Concert Band (met Ray Thompson als dirigent) ter gelegenheid van het 25-jarig bestaan van het orkest. Het werk opent majestueus, met vraag-en-antwoordfrasen tussen de verschillende secties, gevolgd door een sneller, marsachtig gedeelte waarvan het hoofdthema de ritmes van het openingsmateriaal weerspiegelt. Een bridgepassage met fragmenten voor de saxofoons en trompetten mondt uit in een nieuw thema, dat eerder legato van karakter is en wordt herhaald na een modulatie. De bridgepassage kondigt een reprise van het hoofdthema aan, waarna het openingsmateriaal opnieuw zijn opwachtingmaakt om het werk op bruisende wijze af te sluiten. March Prelude: Alnwick Town wurde von der Alnwick Playhouse Concert Band (mit Ray Thompson als Dirigent) anlässlich ihres 25-jährigen Bestehens in Auftrag gegeben. Das Stück beginnt majestätisch mit Frage-Antwort-Passagen zwischen den verschiedenen Instrumentengruppen des Orchesters und leitet in einen schnelleren marschartigen Abschnitt über. Das Hauptthema erinnert an die Rhythmen des Eröffnungsmaterials. Eine Überleitung mit Einwürfen der Saxophone und Trompeten führt zu einem neuen Thema, das eher legato ist und nach einem Tonartwechsel wiederholt wird. Die Überleitungspassage kündigt eine Wiederholung des Hauptthemas an, bevor das Eröffnungsmaterial wiedererklingt, um das Werk schwungvoll zum Ende zu bringen. March Prelude: Alnwick Town est une commande de l’Alnwick Playhouse Concert Band (dirigé par Ray Thompson) pour célébrer ses vingt-cinq premières années. La pièce s’ouvre majestueusement avec des phrases qui se répondent entre les divers pupitres de l’orchestre, avant l’arrivée d’une section plus rapide en forme de marche le thème principal faisant écho aux rythmes des phrases d’ouverture. Un passage de transition comprenant des fragments pour saxophones et trompettes mène un nouveau thème de nature plus legato qui est répété après chaque changement de tonalité. Le passage de transition revient pour annoncer une réexposition du thème principal, avant la réapparitiondu matériel du début pour clore la pièce de façon grandiose.

Opening with a stately rhythm in the low brass, the main theme moves into a slightly slower and more lyrical section with cascading triplets moving throughout the woodwinds. Moving into a faster section, the piece echoes motives from earlier in the work while introducing a few new ideas. An excellent choice for contest and festival. (6:30).

The Juvavum Fanfare was composed for the closing concert of the first part-time University course in Wind Orchestra Conducting at the renowned Mozarteum University Salzburg, which took place from 2019 to 2021 for the first time. This celebratory opening composition is dedicated to the esteemed course instructor and conductor, Martin Fuchsberger, as well as to all the graduates who successfully completed this program. The name of the fanfare, “Juvavum,” derives from the ancient Roman name for Salzburg. This connection to Salzburg is not only evident in the premiere of the piece at the Mozarteum Salzburg but also in its musical depth. Thematically, the initial fanfare and subsequent lyrical section draw from the melody of Salzburg's regional anthem, “Land uns'rer Väter.” The majestic fanfare echoes the opening intervals of this anthem. From bar 27 onward, a direct citation of the melodic theme can be heard. Both the fanfare motifs and the vocal lines of this anthem are eventually brought together in an exhilarating final ection. The Juvavum Fanfare is ideally suited to ceremonially open concerts and provides an engaging experience for both listeners and musicians alike due to its appropriate length.
