What a way to open any concert. The Black Horse Troopis one of John Philip Sousa?s best known marches and was described by the great Frederick Fennell as ?a regimental march of classic content and proportions,one which serves as a model for all that are similar to it ...? Treat your band with this fantastic march. John Philip Sousa schreef deze mars voor Troop A, een uitmuntende bereden eenheid van de Ohio National Guard in Cleveland. Frederick Fennell beschreef dit stuk als volgt: “Dit is een regimentsmars van een klassieke inhoud en vorm,een die kan dienen als model voor alle vergelijkbare marsen… In The Black Horse Troop is veel meer te vinden dan enkel Sousa’s talent voor het schrijven van marsen: zijn liefde voor paarden heeft hem ongetwijfeld geholpenbij het maken van een van zijn mooiste creaties.†De titel verwijst naar het exclusieve gebruik van zwarte paarden door Troop A, Ohio National Guard.The Black Horse Troop ist einer von John Philip Sousas bekanntesten Märschen. Der berühmte Dirigent Frederick Fennel beschrieb das Stück als ein Regimentsmarsch von klassischem Inhalt und Struktur, ein Vorbild für alle ihm ähnlichen Werke... Verwöhnen Sie Ihr Blasorchester mit diesem fantastischen Marsch! La collaborazione tra John Philip Sousa e la Troupe A, un’eccellente unit della Guardia Nazionale dell’Ohio di stanza a Cleveland, risale al 1881. Nel 1924, John Philip Sousa dedica a questa unit la marcia The Black Horse Troop(La truppa dei cavalli neri). Da The Black Horse Troop traspare molto più del semplice talento nel comporre di Sousa; il suo amore per i cavalli lo ha senza dubbio aiutato a fare di questa marcia una delle sue creazioni più riuscite. Il titolo prende spunto dal fatto che la Troupe A monta solamente cavalli neri.

Black light is defined as infrared or ultraviolet light which is invisible to the naked eye. The idea of an entire spectra existing out of the range of human perception was a large influencing factor for George Sweet in the composition of this piece. Richly scored for the modern concert band, Black Light is written in a post-minimalist style and is also heavily influenced by the work of American composers Steve Reich, John Adams, and Philip Glass.Black light is defined as infrared or ultraviolet light which is invisible to the naked eye. The idea of an entire spectra existing out of the range of human perception was an influencing factor on the composition of the piece. Black Light is written in a post-minimalist style and is also heavily influenced by the work of American composers Steve Reich, John Adams, and Philip Glass.This begins with strict motor accompaniment. Take care to maintain equal balance among the different “moving parts†so that they blend to create a solid whole both here and throughout the piece. The primary thematic material is stated by the trumpets and horns at m. 12. This material is the basis for much of the harmonic and thematic material that follows. A slightly varied statement of the main theme is presented again at m. 26 with a different type of motor accompaniment. This leads to a B-section at m. 44, which is a bold fanfare-like presentation of the main material. Another series of variations on the main theme begins at m. 50 and incorporates many different textural and harmonic ideas in the accompaniment. Once again, be careful to not let any one “moving part†overwhelm another and keep the texture evenly balanced.  A second, broader presentation of the B-section occurs at m. 90 and leads to a subdued C-section at m. 100 with new melodic material presented in the trumpet. A whimsical march-like section pushes to the return of the introductory motor material at m. 131. A final heroic presentation of the main thematic material results in a somewhat ambiguous coda, which brings the piece to a dramatic conclusion.
