Fear, anxiety, adrenaline, and a sheer rush of excitement all take center stage in this musical depiction of a rollercoaster ride. After percussion simulate the sound of a lift hill, the ride is off in an action-packed series of drops, turns, and loops. Eventually the riders get their hands up in the air and revel in the unabashed joy of the moment before the ride comes to its end. Unique and powerful!

In Camel Ride you will experience the magic of a colourful Arabic caravan as it slowly passes by. With this short work for a flexible ten part instrumentation, composer Jan de Haan has brilliantly reflected the atmosphere of the parade and carefully capturing the mysticism of the East. Camel Ride will make a great interlude in your concert performances. In Camel Ride horen we een karavaan voorbijtrekken. In rustige tred schrijdt de kleurige stoet voort. Componist Jan de Haan heeft met dit korte werk deze sfeer voortreffelijk weten te treffen.Der im Titel dieses Werkes genannte Kamelritt ist durchaus wörtlich zu nehmen: Die Musik beschreibt eine vorüber ziehende Karawane. Ruhig, mit gleichmäßigem Schritt, hört man die Wüstenschiffe inmitten eines bunten Menschengewimmels stetig voranschreiten. Jan de Haan ist es in diesem kurzen Werk für zehn Stimmen ausgezeichnet gelungen, die Atmosphäre dieser exotischen Szenerie in diesem Stück für eine zehnstimmig variable Besetzung einzufangen.Au rythme de la caravane de chameaux, bercés par le vent, nous effectuons une promenade musicale de petits villages en criques isolées, de dunes en plages du bout du monde, de cascades en marabouts éclatants de blancheur. Camel Ride : une touche insolite ! Una passeggiata musicale nel deserto in groppa ai cammelli: atmosfere esotiche e mozzafiato, accompagnati dal vento tra le dune fermandosi in splendide oasi. Camel Ride: un brano insolito!

The opening measures of Thrill Ride depict our first glimpse of the giant structure. This is followed by the slow ride up the lift-hill and the blood-chilling first drop that begins our journey on this musical roller coaster. To ride a roller coaster is to experience a collection of emotions: confidence, regret, fear, and euphoria to name a few. In short, we are confronted with our own mortality. (3:30).

Haunted Sleigh Ride is based on Jingle Bells but shifted to a minor key, transforming a winter favorite into an eerie adventure into the snowy unknown. We may not be laughing all the way. Brian Beck's setting is jam-packed with various style and dynamic markings as well as accidentals in every part, challenging musicians, and engaging audiences. Shifting a piece from major to minor (or vice versa) will instantly illuminate a melody and breathe new life into a piece. What was happy is now sad, what was dark is now vibrant, and, in this case, what was cheerful is now spooky. Correlated to Sound Innovations for Concert Band, Book 2, Level 4.
