As a composer, Henry Fillmore (1881-1956), was one of the greatest practitioners of the American style march. Written for the 1952 Orange Bowl game between the North and South College Football All Stars, this march has all the elements of the mature Fillmore style: energy, brilliance and abundant, memorable tunes. Robert Foster's concert edition will liven up any program and would also make a great encore.

The work opens with a stern fanfare in bare fifths, which leads to a cantabile theme introduced by alto saxophone. This builds to a climax and reintroduces the fanfare, which slowly evolves into the subsequent vivo. A perky tune emerges on flute, saxophone and trumpet, which, after a short bridge passage, leads to a contrasting melody on low clarinets and saxophones. After some development a true ‘second subject’ appears for the whole band. A recapitulation leads briefly back to the opening fanfare before the vivo returns to close the work in celebratory mood.Het werk begint met een sobere fanfare in open kwinten, gevolgd door een zangerig thema dat wordt ge ntroduceerd door de altsaxofoon. Dit thema groeit uit tot een climax en leidt opnieuw de fanfare in, die zich langzaam ontwikkelt tot het daaropvolgende vivo. Er verschijnt een opgewekte melodie in de fluit, saxofoon en trompet, die na een korte overgangspassage uitmondt in een contrasterende melodie in de lage klarinetten en saxofoons. Na een verdere uitwerking openbaart zich een tweede thema voor het complete orkest. Een herneming voert ons even weer mee naar de openingsfanfare, voordat het vivo terugkeert en het werk in feestelijke stemming afsluit.Nach einer ernsten Fanfare in bloßen Quinten, die zu einem Thema in cantabile im Altsaxophon führt, taucht eine kecke Melodie in Flöte, Saxophon und Trompete auf, die nach einer kurzen Überleitung zu einer kontrastierenden Melodie in den tiefen Klarinetten und Saxophonen wird. Ein zweites Thema“ spielt das gesamte Blasorchester. Bevor ein Vivo aus dem Anfangsteil Southend Celebration beendet, werden längst alle Musiker und Zuhörer von der festlichen Stimmung, die es verbreitet, infiziert sein!L’œuvre s’ouvre avec une fanfare de nature sérieuse en quintes qui mène un thème cantabile introduit par les saxophones alto. La musique s’amplifie pour atteindre un certain climax et réintroduire la fanfare, qui évolue progressivement vers un vivo. Fl tes, saxophones et trompettes introduisent un air guilleret qui, après un court passage de transition, aboutit une mélodie contrastée dans le registre grave des clarinettes et saxophones. Après un développement, un véritable second sujet apparaît pour l’orchestre entier. Une récapitulation mène une brève réapparition de la fanfare d’ouverture avant le retour du vivo, qui achève la pièce dans une ambiance de fête.Il lavoro si apre con un’austera fanfara con quinte vuote, che porta a un tema cantabile introdotto da un saxofono contralto. Si arriva a un culmine e si introduce nuovamente la fanfara, che lentamente evolve nel ‘vivo’ successivo. Un tema vivace emerge dal flauto, dal sassofono e dalla tromba, e dopo un breve passaggio di transizione, porta a una melodia contrastante, dei clarinetti bassi e dei sassofoni. Dopo qualche sviluppo un vero ‘secondo soggetto’ sorge dall’intera banda. Una ripresa porta brevemente indietro alla fanfara, prima che il ‘vivo’ ritorni per chiudere il lavoro in modo celebrativo.

Highdays and Holidays was commissioned by the South Berks Concert Band to celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2016. The band rehearses in the village of Mortimer, which has a long and fascinating history dating back to, and beyond, the BronzeAge. Mortimer is famous for The Mortimer Revel, an annual event which was apparently a fairly rumbustious and sometimes violent affair. Highdays and Holidays seeks to capture some of this festive event in the form of an energeticoverture, which explores a variety of moods including the somewhat chaotic atmosphere of the Revel.Highdays and Holidays is geschreven in opdracht van de South Berks Concert Band ter gelegenheid van hun veertigjarig bestaan in 2016. Het orkest repeteert in het Britse Mortimer, dat een lange, boeiende geschiedenis kent, die teruggaat totvoor het bronzen tijdperk. Mortimer staat bekend om The Mortimer Revel, een jaarlijks evenement dat kennelijk een vrij onstuimige en soms gewelddadige aangelegenheid was. Highdays and Holidays weerspiegelt dit feestelijke gebeuren in devorm van een energieke ouverture waarin verschillende sfeerbeelden worden opgeroepen en de soms chaotische taferelen van de Revel worden verklankt.Highdays and Holidays wurde 2016 von der South Berks Concert Band anlässlich ihres 40-jährigen Jubiläums in Auftrag gegeben.

Bij dit winterverhaal staat het thema kerst eens n et centraal. Vandaar dat u A Winter’s Tale net zo goed rondom de kerstdagen als ook bij andere concerten in het winterseizoen kunt uitvoeren. De muziek geeft een beschrijvingvan een winters tafereel op het land: een zonsondergang, sprookjesachtig besneeuwde landerijen en bossen. In de verte klinken de bellen van een slee die langzaam maar zeker naderbij komt. Maar dan keert de rust weer terug, terugin het verstilde landschap…A Winter’s Tale hat keinen direkten Bezug zum Thema Weihnachten, kann also ebenso zu (vor-) weihnachtlichen Anlässen wie auch bei anderen Konzerten im Winterhalbjahr aufgeführt werden. Die Musik beschreibt eine Winterszenerie auf dem Lande: Ein stiller Sonnenuntergang, tief verschneite Felder und Wälder, von ferne klingen die Glöckchen eines Schlittens, der sich als Dreigespann entpuppt, bevor zum Schluss des Werkes wieder Ruhe in die Szenerie einkehrt.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 Goodwell en Oklahama (États-Unis). Les orchestres membres du Western Plains Wind Consortium qui ont contribué 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 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 tro ka. 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.

A Sevenoaks Suite was commissioned by the Sevenoaks and Tonbridge Concert Band from Kent in the south-east of England. The suite describes 3 famous landmarks in the Sevenoaks and Tonbridge area: ‘Knole Park’, situated to the south-east of Sevenoaks. ‘The Chapel - Tonbridge School’: This movement centres around a hymn-like chorale, depicting the years of worship that have taken place within the chapel, and ‘The Vine Bandstand’ suggesting the type of music often played in bandstands. It is in march form, but is not actually a march throughout, veering off into other styles before ending emphatically.A Sevenoaks Suite werd geschreven in opdracht van de Sevenoaks and Tonbridge Concert Band uit Kent, in het zuidoosten van Engeland. De suite beschrijft drie beroemde landschapselementen en bouwwerken in de buurt van Sevenoaks en Tonbridge: als eerste ‘Knole Park’, dat ten zuidoosten van Sevenoaks ligt. Dan volgt ‘The Chapel Tonbridge School’, een deel dat is opgebouwd rond een hymne-achtig koraal. ‘The Vine Bandstand’ doet denken aan het type muziek dat vaak in muziekpaviljoens wordt gespeeld. Dit laatste deel is gecomponeerd in marsvorm, maar het is geen complete mars, in die zin dat er ook wordt afgedwaald naar andere stijlen voordat het werk eindigt in eenkrachtig slot. A Sevenoaks Suite wurde von der Sevenoaks and Tonbridge Concert Band aus Kent im Südosten Englands in Auftrag gegeben. Die Suite beschreibt drei berühmte Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Gegend von Sevenoaks und Tonbridge: Knole Park“ liegt südöstlich von Sevenoaks, The Chapel Tonbridge School“ dreht sich um einen hymnenartigen Choral, der die vielen Gottesdienste beschreibt, die in der Kapelle stattgefunden haben, und The Vine Bandstand“ deutet die Art von Musik an, die oftmals in Musikpavillons gespielt wird. Der Satz ist daher in Form eines Marsches geschrieben, auch wenn er nicht die ganze Zeit wie ein Marsch klingt, und geht in andere Stilarten über, bevor er energischendet. A Sevenoaks Suite est une commande l’Harmonie de Sevenoaks et Tonbridge, dans le Kent, au sud-est de l’Angleterre. Cette suite en trois mouvements dépeint trois lieux célèbres aux environs de ces villes. « Knole Park » évoque un parc au sud-est de Sevenoaks. Fondé sur un choral en forme d’hymne, « The Chapel Tonbridge School » représente les années de pratiques religieuses dont la chapelle a été témoin. Enfin, « The Vine Bandstand » rappelle les styles typiques des kiosques musique. Ce mouvement est en forme de marche, mais s’en écarte parfois en faveur d’autres genres avant une conclusion énergique.

The Blue Mountains are a breathtaking mountain and forest landscape in the New South Wales, Australia. This work came about above all inspired by Weeping Rock, an overhanging rock that gets its name from the waterfall that flows over it.The Blue Mountains bevinden zich in New South Wales in Australië. Ze vormen een adembenemend landschap van wouden en rotspartijen. Dit werk verklankt vooral de beroemde overhangende rots Weeping Rock, die met een onafgebroken stroom water lijkt tehuilen – vandaar de naam.Die Blue Mountains sind eine atemberaubende Wald- und Berglandschaft im australischen Bundesstaat New South Wales. Dieses Werk entstand vor allem unter dem Eindruck eines beruhmten uberhängenden Felsen namens Weeping Rock, der so von einem Wasserfallumspult ist, dass er zu weinen scheint.Les Montagnes Bleues, en Nouvelle-Galles du Sud (Australie), forment une chaîne montagneuse parsemée de lacs et de forêts. Cette pièce a été inspirée, avant tout, par Weeping Rock (rocher pleureur), un rocher en surplomb qui tire son nom de lacascade qui ruisselle dessus. Le Blue Mountains sono un paesaggio montano e forestale mozzafiato del New South Wales, in Australia. Il compositore si è lasciato ispirare soprattutto alla Weeping Rock, una roccia a strapiombo che prende il nome dalla cascata che vi scorre sopra.

Notes The Teton Range is part of the Rocky Mountain chain just east of the Idaho border and south of Yellowstone National Park. The name of this majestic range has its roots in the Shoshone teewinet, meaning many pinnacles. Performance Suggestions: The opening measures of The Grand Tetons should be played broadly and majestically. At m. 14, the tempo is indicated at q = 132 and is introduced by a light snare drum figure. The low brass figures at m.18 are to be played softly and broadly in contrast to the lighter and slightly louder high woodwinds. This entire section builds to a climax at m.44. Note the dynamic contrasts in the mixed meter section after m. 53. at 67, the trombone and horn figures should be evident but not overbearing against the lightly played trumpet solo. The 2 measure mixed meter (6/8) (3/4) theme introduced at m.88 should be performed by exaggerating the dotted 8th-16th rhythm, thereby creating a slight swing and dance-like feeling. At m.109, the 8th notes become even and the theme more strident and energetic, with the ritard returning Tetons to the opening theme at m.129.Notes The Teton Range is part of the Rocky Mountain chain just east of the Idaho border and south of Yellowstone National Park.
