A beautiful arrangement of one of the most memorable melodies of all time that makes a wonderful concert piece for any middle school band. Starts out quietly featuring the woodwind section (and optional choir or audience sing-a-long) and then the brass takes over and builds to a big full sound. Great piece to combine choir and band as the finale of your concert. A great message in a great song! Inspiring and impressive!

A band concert on a beautiful summer evening in the park is interrupted by a few raindrops, and there is crackling in the atmosphere. A violent storm with thunder and gusts of wind appears, but does not last long. Peace and sunshine return, but a few raindrops persist... and maybe the concert can resume? Listen for the raindrops in the bells, the crackling in the cymbal, and thunder in the timpani.

This work presents the listener with the wondrous grandeur of one of the great mountain ranges in America, the Sierra Nevada. When the music begins, the listener is greeted with the awakening of an early morning in the Sierras, complete with a mysterious, foggy mist that creates a feeling of complete stillness and peace with the world. As the mist slowly dissipates, hidden forms begin to make their presence known and gradually become a tremendous panorama of grand snow-covered mountain peaks. Grandiose and immense in all their beauty and glory, they stand before you with a sense of undeniable power, extending in all directions as far as the eye can see. Upon closer inspection one can imagine the circling golden eagles, the regal elk and royal stags, all lazily wandering the hills and canyons of conifers that stand tall, reaching for the passing clouds in hopes of gaining a few rays of life-giving sunshine and moisture. Look in another direction and you will see the immense rolling hillsides of colourful wild flowers, fluttering butterflies, birds darting about, sparkling waterfalls and all critters existing in harmony. After the day's activities the sun begins to slip below the horizon, the mist returns, and all living things prepare for another still night of sleep, serenity and the warmth of their secure bedding places.

Inspiration was commissioned by the Solothurnischer Kanotonal Musikverband in Switzerland in 1993. The composition begins with an A-theme written in a Phrygian tonality and, after an enormous climax, moves on into a quicker B-section, characterized by the use of wide interval jumps. Then follows the development in which both themes return individually and together. Peace and quiet is restored in the slow middle movement, based on the B-theme. The movement comes to a close with a tutti B-theme, brutally interrupted by fragments from the A-theme. Without a break, the final movement of this contrastive piece develops from these fragments. The theme of this extremelyrhythmical closing movement is built up of elements from the A-theme, whilst the B-theme (from the slow middle movement) returns in full once more. Before the piece comes to a close in a resounding fortissimo, the cornet soloist performs the A-theme from the back of the auditorium, to special effect. Het werk begint met een in de frygische toonaard gecomponeerd thema A, dat na een climax overgaat in een snel gedeelte. Dit thema B valt op door de grote intervalsprongen. Hierna volgt een doorwerking waarin de twee hoofdthema's zowelafzonderlijk als gelijktijdig terugkeren. Het werk komt tot rust in een langzaam middengedeelte dat gebaseerd is op het B-thema. Het deel sluit af met een tutti gespeeld B-thema dat wreed wordt ge nterrumpeerd door fragmentenvan het A-thema, terwijl het B-thema (uit het langzame middendeel) in zijn geheel nog een keer terugkeert. Voordat het werk in een stralend fortissimo afsluit, ontstaat een bijzonder effect doordat de trompetsolist het A-thema speeltvan achter uit de zaal.Inspiration, ein Werk, das Jan de Haan für den Musikverband Solothurn komponierte, ist eine spannende Komposition mit zwei sehr unterschiedlichen Hauptthemen, die im Verlauf des Stückes teils einzeln, teils parallel behandelt werden. Der rassige erste Satz wird gefolgt von einem ruhigen Mittelteil, der Schlusssatz ist hingegen sehr rhythmisch und endet in einem glänzenden Fortissimo. Ein kontrastreiches Werk, das Musiker und Publikum gleichermaßen inspirieren wird!

As summer ends, the chill of the autumn air awakens feelings within us. The shadows are longer in late afternoon and darkness comes early. The trees are losing their leaves and their gnarled trunks and branches take on sinister profiles against the looming twilight. We shudder at the cold wind. Our pulse quickens and we suddenly want to return to the safety and warmth of home. Night falls and we are once again at peace. We say a final farewell to the carefree days of summer and accept the relentless march of the seasons. Winter will soon be here. Shadows of the Equinox is a dramatic and lyrical piece inspired by a late Midwest autumn. It was commissioned by the 2010 Festival of Bands, Vincennes, Indiana, including the bands from Barr-Reeve, Loogootee, Mitchell, North Daviess, North Knox, and South Knox High Schools. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

Imagine sitting in a canoe traveling down the peaceful river, blessed by the solitude of nature as the bow cuts quietly through the water. Lost in thoughts of comfort and peace, the solitude, that only nature can provide. Escaping the hustle and bustle of hurried lives to watch the deer maneuver through the woods and the birds fly through the air. In the last section, picture the majestic eagle soaring from the treetops as he makes his way out of sight. You, your students, and audience will enjoy the Solitude of this work.
