This spirited march commemorates the U.S. Navy's first African-American officers, known as the Golden Thirteen. While traditional in form, the work cleverly incorporates fragments of Anchors Aweigh while the trio section is based on the spiritual Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen. A perfect concert or contest march that is equally appropriate for Veterans Day or Black History Month.

Symphony no. 6 dates from the spring of 2009. It is dedicated to the conductor Károly Neumayer and his orchestra, the Pécs Railway Workers' Concert Wind Ensemble. About the work, the composer writes: 'This three-movement composition follows the classical traditions, but the first movement further develops the Scriabin-type sonata form, combining two fast movements. In contrast to the lyricism of the second movement a subterranean, negative force also makes its presence felt but in a dramatic conflict is overcome by the massive, inspired communal singing of the lyrical material, which becomes chorale-like as it emanates from the modal scales. The third movement is acheerful, dance-like scherzo, with comical, humorous sound-effects ' Die 6. Symphonie entstand im Frühling 2009. Sie ist dem Dirigenten Károly Neumayer und seinem Orchester, dem Bläserorchester der Ungarischen Staatsbahnen Pécs, gewidmet. Der Komponist schreibt über sein Werk: 'Die dreisätzige Komposition folgt den klassischen Traditionen, der erste Satz aber entwickelt durch die Verbindung von zwei schnellen Sätzen die Form von Skrjabin weiter. Im zweiten Satz erscheint als Gegenspieler zur lyrischen Grundstimmung auch eine negative, in die Tiefe ziehende Kraft. Letztere wird aber im dramatischen Gefecht vom lyrischen Stoff und vom choralähnlichen, aus der modalen Tonleitern stammenden, blockförmigen, gemeinschaftlichen Lied besiegt. Der dritteSatz ist ein fröhliches, tänzerisches Scherzo mit komischen, humorvollen Klangeffekten.'.

Salutation was commissioned by Japanese conductor and broadcaster, Yutaka Nishida, a dear friend of the composer Philip Sparke. Salutation follows fairly conventional march form. A short fanfare introduces the main theme, played by clarinets and saxophones. A bridge passage, mainly in the brass, heralds a change of key and a legato second subject, again played initially by the clarinets, which leads to the conventional trio theme, which is then repeated by the full band. Sections of the second subject lead back to the home key and a return of the main theme, embellished with woodwinds.Salutation is geschreven in opdracht van de Japanse dirigent en radiopresentator Yutaka Nishida, een goede vriend van Philip Sparke. Het werk volgt een vrij conventionele marsvorm: een korte fanfare introduceert het hoofdthema, gespeeld door de klarinetten en saxofoons. Een bridgepassage, voornamelijk door het koper gespeeld, kondigt een modulatie en een legato gedeelte aan, aanvankelijk door de klarinetten gebracht en uitmondend in het conventionele triothema, dat daarna door het hele orkest wordt herhaald. Stukjes uit het legato gedeelte brengen ons terug naar de oorspronkelijke toonsoort en het hoofdthema, dat wordt versierd met motieven in het hout. Dan volgtnog een korte coda in het koper. Salutation wurde von dem japanischen Dirigenten und Moderator Yutaka Nishida in Auftrag gegeben, der ein guter Freund des Komponisten Philip Sparke ist. Salutation folgt weitgehend der traditionellen Marschform. Eine kurze Fanfare leitet das Hauptthema ein, das von den Klarinetten und Saxophonen gespielt wird. Eine Überleitung, die in erster Linie von den Blechbläsern gespielt wird, kündigt einen Tonartwechsel sowie ein zweites Thema im Legato an, das anfangs wieder von den Klarinetten gespielt wird und zum traditionellen Trio führt, welches dann vom gesamten Orchester wiederholt wird. Teile des zweiten Themas führen in die Ausgangstonart zurück und das Hauptthema, dasvon den Holzbläsern verziert wird, kehrt wieder. Salutation est une commande du chef d'orchestre et animateur radio japonais Yutaka Nishida, un ami du compositeur Philip Sparke. L’œuvre suit la forme assez conventionnelle de la marche : une courte fanfare introduit le thème principal, joué par les clarinettes et les saxophones. Un bref pont, principalement interprété par les cuivres, annonce un changement de tonalité et un second thème legato, joué encore une fois premièrement par les clarinettes, conduit au thème traditionnel du trio, qui est ensuite repris par l'orchestre complet. Des sections du deuxième thème ramènent la pièce sa tonalité d'origine et au thème principal, agrémenté cette fois par les bois.

The piece reflects the composer's fascination with the origins of the universe and deep space in general. The title comes from a theory, formulated by Pythagoras, that the cosmos was ruled by the same laws he had discovered that govern the ratios of note frequencies of the musical scale. (‘Harmonia’ in Ancient Greek, which means scale or tuning rather than harmony - Greek music was monophonic). He also believed that these ratios corresponded to the distances of the six known planets from the sun and that the planets each produced a musical note which combined to weave a continuous heavenly melody (which, unfortunately, we humans cannot hear). In this work, these six notesform the basis of the sections MUSIC OF THE SPHERES and HARMONIA. The pieces opens with a horn solo called t = 0, a name given by some scientists to the moment of the Big Bang when time and space were created, and this is followed by a depiction of the BIG BANG itself, as the entire universe bursts out from a single point. A slower section follows called THE LONELY PLANET which is a meditation on the incredible and unlikely set of circumstances which led to the creation of the Earth as a planet that can support life, and the constant search for other civilisations elsewhere in the universe. ASTEROIDS AND SHOOTING STARS depicts both the benign and dangerous objects that are flying through space and which constantly threaten our planet, and the piece ends with THE UNKNOWN, leaving in question whether our continually expanding exploration of the universe will eventually lead to enlightenment or destruction. Dit werk weerspiegelt de fascinatie van de componist voor het heelal. Het begint met een hoornsolo met de naam t = 0, waarmee sommige wetenschappers de oerknal aanduiden. Dan volgt een weergave van de oerknal zelf. Het volgendegedeelte, The Lonely Planet, is een meditatie over het ongelooflijke samenspel van omstandigheden dat leidde tot het ontstaan van de Aarde. Asteroids and Shooting Stars beschrijft objecten in de ruimte. Het werkeindigt met The Unknown, waarmee we in het ongewisse blijven over de gevolgen van onze verdere verkenning van het universum. In 2005 won Philip Sparke met Music of the Spheres de National Band Association/William D.Revelli Memorial Band Composition Contest.Dieses Werk handelt vom Weltall und unserem Platz im Universum, auf dem Weltbild von Pythagoras basierend. Am einfachsten lässt sich diese außergewöhnliche Komposition wohl als Filmmusik ähnliches Stück beschreiben ? Musik zu einem Science-Fiction-Film eines Ripley Scott oder Steven Spielberg oder auch Musik, wie sie ein John Williams oder Danny Elfman schreiben würde: absolut stimmungsvoll, brillant instrumentiert mit Klangfarben, Strukturen, Effekten und Timbres, gemischt mit fließenden musikalischen Linien, die die Substanz des Themas auf den Punkt treffen. Dieses atemberaubende neue Stück hebt Ihr Blasorchester auf ein höheres Niveau, sowohl im technischen als auchmusikalischen Sinn. La fresque Music of the Spheres (“La musique des sphèresâ€) souligne la fascination qu’éprouve le compositeur pour les origines de l’univers. L’orchestration est proche de la musique de film. Le climat musical est ample, sonore et contrasté. Music of the Spheres evidenza il fascino che le origini dell’universo esercitano su Philip Sparke. Il titolo proviene da una teoria del matematico greco Pitagora, secondo la quale il cosmo è retto dalle stesse leggi che governano i rapporti di frequenza tra le note della scala musicale. Questa composizione inizia con un assolo di corno chiamato t = 0, nozione che definisce il momento del big-bang. The Lonely Planet (Il pianeta solitario) è una meditazione sulle circostanze che hanno portato alla creazione della terra. Asteroids and Shooting Stars (Asteroidi e Stelle cadenti) descrive i molteplici oggetti che si muovono nello spazio e che rappresentano unrischio per il nostro pianeta. Le battute finali portano verso l’ignoto (The Unknown) sollevando una domanda la cui risposta resta in sospeso: la nostra continua avanzata nell’esplorazione dell’Universo porter un giorno alla scoperta o alla distruzione?

Asteroids and comets have played an important role throughout the history of life on earth. It is quite probable that the dinosaurs have been exterminated by an asteroid's impact in the Gulf of Mexico. Huge tidal waves and fire storms wiped out all life. This is the year 2067 according to the Christian calendar. A collision has just taken place in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter and caused an asteroid to enter the earth's power of gravitation. It is instoppably approaching the blue planet. As its peoples have been fighting each other continuously, they missed the building of a global defence system against dangers coming from space. A scanner records the asteroid andimmediately sends a message to the President of the Anglo-American Union. The probability that the asteroid will hit the earth is judged 50% by the experts. Plans are made to shoot the celestial body with rockets live with hydrogen bombs or laser guns in order to throw it off its track, but they fail. The asteroid's size seems to threaten the existence of mankind. Those in the know stare at the night sky in bewilderment. But for the time being, there is still peace on earth....
