A walk through the park or a morning stroll through the forest is what this piece best calls to mind. With its pastoral setting and lush melodies, Velvet Morning will truly showcase your group's mastery of legato playing.Velvet Morning is a warm and colorful work for string orchestra. Please play con sordino if available. The music is a reflection of my love for the orchestral music of Barber, Ravel, Debussy and Satie. It should have the same sense of passion and intensity that those masters employ in their music.The opening tempo is marked rubato, and should speed up then slow down based on the phrases. The main melody appears at m. 11 in the first violins and should have a flowing quality. The harmony does utilize some slight dissonances from time to time which should be emphasized. The violas and cellos take over the melody at m.19 with a counter line in the violins. The melody returns to the violin at m. 27 with a pianistic cello line punctuated by pizzicato in the bass. Some transitional material follows that builds up to a full presentation at m. 47. Let the ensemble open up here with an intense, full sound. This winds down to a return of the introduction at m. 60. The ending should be tender and deliberate all the way to the last plush chord.

Arches is a piece for the developing string orchestra that derives its title from the national park in Utah. I visited the Arches National Monument in June of 2003 during a cross-country trip. The Delicate Arch is the recognizable landmark from this beautiful national park. In order to see this remarkable natural formation up close, you have to hike a trail of over two miles. The music in this piece is inspired by my journey to see the arch. Once there, you are treated to a vast panoramic view of the golden Utah landscape that leaves one breathless. Arches is an effective piece in teaching pizzicato playing as a melodic device. Most often, pizzicato is used as an effect or punctuation mark to larger melodic ideas. There is a brief arco section to provide contrast and build up to the dramatic return of the main pizzicato melody. Each section in the ensemble has a statement of the melody. It is important to think linearly in addition to vertically when playing these pizzicato lines. Forward motion is of up-most importance in terms of making musical phrases out of these pizzicato lines.Arches is a piece for the developing string orchestra that derives its title from the national park in Utah.

Firewalk is a piece for young string orchestra designed to teach pizzicato playing to the developing string player. All too often, pizzicato is treated simply as an effect or percussive accent to a passage. With this piece, pizzicato becomes the melody, harmony and rhythm. It calls for the player to use dynamics and phrasing while playing pizzicato. This work is adapted from incidental music I composed for a production of The Birth of Merlin, a play by William Shakespeare. The piece is dedicated to Helen Borgers, who directed this production by the Bard in the Yard Shakespeare Company in Long Beach, CA. The material for Firewalk comes from a section in the play where the characters are dancing a devilish tango with ethereal spirits. The music features jaunty rhythms, dynamic contrasts, and a dramatic climax. Firewalk is a diverse addition to any concert program.Firewalk is a piece for young string orchestra designed to teach pizzicato playing to the developing string player.

On request of Brass Band Midden Brabants chairman, Robert Leveugle, Jan Van der Roost composed this quiet piece with its broad tones. The source of inspiration was a visit of the composer to the beautiful cathedral of Canterbury, in which so many fine compositions have sounded throughout the ages. Besides solo phrases, there are some broad and massive tutti phrases, which make the orchestra sound like a majestic organ. Op verzoek van de voorzitter van Brass Band Midden Brabant, Robert Leveugle, schreef Jan Van der Roost deze serene en weids klinkende compositie. De directe aanleiding ertoe was een bezoek van de componist aan de prachtige kathedraal van Canterbury, waar eeuwenlang al zoveel prachtige muziek heeft geklonken. Naast solistische passages komen enkele brede en massief klinkende tuttipassages voor die het orkest als een majestueus orgel laten klinken. Auf Wunsch des Vorsitzenden der Brass Band Midden Brabant, Robert Leveugle, schrieb Jan Van der Roost diese heitere und großartig klingende Komposition. Der direkte Anlass dazu war ein Besuch des Komponisten der prachtvollen Kathedrale von Canterbury, wo schon seit Jahrhunderten solch schöne Musik erklingt. Neben den Solo-Passagen kommen auch einige Tutti-Passagen vor, welche das Orchester wie eine majestätische Orgel klingen lassen. Canterbury Chorale est une oeuvre empreinte de sérénité et de solennité. Elle s’inspire de la beauté majestueuse de la célèbre cathédrale de la ville de Canterbury, haut lieu de la culture musicale anglaise. Canterbury Chorale alterne des passages en solo et des phrases en tutti. Les sonorités sont amples et rondes. Les courbes sont fluides, légères et brillantes. Les tutti, puissants et soutenus, rappellent la richesse sonore et la générosité de l’orgue d’église. Canterbury Chorale est dédié Robert Leveugle, président du Brass Band Midden Brabant.

Students focus on dynamics and articulations, with staccato eighth notes performed off the string. A dynamic and engaging crowd pleaser!

A popular holiday favorite performed and recorded by today's top artists including Luciano Pavarotti, this new arrangement is flowing and makes good use of the shifting tonalities of the beautiful piece. The warm harmonies and exquisite lyricism will make.Gesu Bambino is the most recognized composition by Italian composer Pietro A. Yon (1886-1943). A respected concert organist, Yon was organist at the Vatican as well as St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City from 1926 through 1943.We begin with a gently flowing rhythmic pattern in the celli which establishes the 12/8 meter. Throughout the piece Yon uses the traditional Christmas carol O, Come All Ye Faithful as a countermelody. This first occurs with a short quote when the second violins enter in measure 3. The first violins entire in the pick-up to measure 5 with Yon's main melody. Careful attention to dynamics should be paid throughout, but especially in cases such as measure 9-10 where they change dramatically from piano to forte. The pick-up to measure 14 has the viole and celli playing the O, Come All Ye Faithful countermelody through measure 21. This occurs again in the first violins with the pick-up to measure 32. Make full use of the crescendo in measure 53. Played with warmth and reverence, this will be an effective showcase for the orchestra.- Roy Phillippe.
