The Dylan Thomas poem Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night was the motivation for this musical composition. While not a programmatic depiction of the poem, the work attempts to recreate the essence of the poem in sound. The opening motive, representative of the life force, permeates much of the work. The use of sound layers - in the form of polytonal hymns - calls to mind the struggles and persistence of the human spirit and its refusal to go gentle. A substantial and dramatic work for mature ensembles. Dur: 11:15 (Grade 5).

Take a journey on the Silk Road, the ancient trade route that linked the Far East with the Western world in this imaginative piece by Robert Sheldon. Exotic harmonies combine with driving rhythms and colorful percussion to create a soundscape of shifting sands and faraway lands. A solo alto saxophone references the sound of a Turkish sorna to open the piece, leading to the persistent rhythm and modal melodies. Finger cymbals, shakers, and hand drums help to represent the culture of this remote part of the world. (2:19) Correlated to Sound Innovations, Book 2, Level 3.

Fanfare for Tokyo is a flamboyant and extrovert concert opener designed to celebrate the virtuosic character of the talented Tokyo Wind Symphony Orchestra. A central theme over persistent percussion is first given by bassoons and taken up by the full ensemble. Either side of this horns and euphoniums lead an acrobatic fanfare under woodwind flourishes.

Fanfare for Tokyo is een uitbundig en extravert openingswerk. Het centrale thema, dat zich ontvouwt over aanhoudend slagwerk, verschijnt eerst in de fagotten en wordt dan overgenomen door het complete orkest. Daaromheen voeren de hoorns eneuphoniums een acrobatische fanfare uit, waarboven de houtinstrumenten fraaie versieringen spelen.

Fanfare for Tokyo ist ein schillerndes, extrovertiertes Eroffnungswerk. Das zentrale Thema, das sich uber dem durchlaufenden Schlagwerk entfaltet, erscheint erst in den Fagotten und wird dann vom gesamten Orchester aufgenommen. Darum herumspielen die Horner und Euphonien eine akrobatische Fanfare und die Holzblaser davor schone Verzierungen.

Parfaite pour ouvrir un concert, Fanfare for Tokyo est une piece exuberante et extravertie dont le theme central soutenu par une percussion tenace est introduit par les hautbois pour etre ensuite repris par l'orchestre entier. De part etd'autre de ce theme, les cors et les euphoniums exposent une fanfare acrobatique enrichie d'ornements interpretes les bois. Une piece qui permettra d'introduire chacun des pupitres de votre orchestre !

Perfetto per iniziare un concerto, Fanfare for Toyko e un brano esuberante e brioso il cui tema principale, sostenuto da una tenace percussione, e introdotto dagli oboi per poi essere ripreso dall'intero organico. Una fanfara, arricchita daabbellimenti interpretati dai legni, e esposta dai corni e dagli eufoni. Un brano che consente di mettere in luce ogni sezione della banda!

Cosmic Expedition takes performers on a musical journey far across the galaxy via three main sections.  This fanfare composition would be perfect for opening a concert. It has bold brass fanfare figures over textural woodwinds to start and then takes the listener on a sonic journey through a variation of harmonic colors, tambural and textural shifts.
Cosmic Expedition takes performers on a musical journey far across the galaxy via three main sections. The first, a rather celebratory and triumphant fanfare in Bb major begins with the upper woodwinds and percussion creating a sound-screen, that is a busy texture consisting of a flurry of repeated notes over which the horns and alto saxophones present the opening theme. The sound-screen should be carefully balanced and give way to the melody at m. 5, which should be played extremely marcato. The timpani solo beginning in m. 11 must not be understated. A brief percussion interlude separates a restatement of the opening theme, this time with the addition of the trumpet, tenor saxophone, and euphonium, and a counter melody by the low winds. The percussion interlude is playful, light, but full of vigor and energy. An Ab in the low winds pulls the harmony towards G minor in m. 40 to start the second section, a more serious fanfare. Here, the marimba repeats an ostinato that is complemented by the bass drum and woodblock. The upper woodwinds with the xylophone and snare drum dance over the stern secondary fanfare. A longing call lead by the trombones, interrupted by a subtle snare drum beckons to the clarinets and horn who begin the third section of the piece at m. 68. This haunting melody in C minor is legato, and starkly contrasts all which came before it. A relentless concert tom-tom played with hard mallets keeps the momentum persistent, and a heartbeat-like pulse is felt from the tuba and baritone saxophone. The melody rises towards m. 84 when the brass harken back to the fanfare style before fading back into another lush woodwind strain.A recapitulation of the low winds’ call is heard at m. 100 which in this occasion intensifies into an emphatic statement by the battery percussion instruments. Now in Eb major, the opening fanfare theme is heard again once more before fading into the beginning of the piece’s conclusion.To end, the counter melody from the opening section duels with chromatic tension above before swelling to an arrival in the original key of Bb major. The full ensemble celebrates the piece’s resolution, and after a few crunchy power chords the journey is completed.
