PRELUDE AND TOCCATA FOR PIANO by Marc Douyon is based on the Haitian folk tune Linglinsou. The main theme quotes this folk melody, which is then developed with various compositional techniques. Original secondary themes and motives by the composer are an integral part of the colorful musical tapestry as well. The composition opens with a lyrical melody that suggests an atmosphere of complaint, anguish, and despair. But soon, the lyrical main theme, which makes use of hemiola figures, takes the shape of a gracious tribal dance in compound meter. Shortly thereafter, however, the character of the piece changes into an agitated toccata characterized by driving staccato notes, accents, and a close hand position at the piano. The final moments of the piece are heroic-like in nature, but also convey a sense of calm after the storm.

The summer season in the southern United States rumbles with quick, intense storms most afternoons. Flashes of lightning, clapping thunder, and drenching rainfall are characteristics of the massive, anvil-shaped thunderhead clouds that roll in during the heat of the day. Scored for flexible instrumentation, Storm Chaser is inspired by the intensity of these storms and the adrenaline that flows through the veins of those that experience the wrath of Mother Nature. Your students will love the musical and visual imagery of this dramatic new work by Christopher Kyle Green!

Snow Suite is the soundtrack to childhood’s winter adventures. Tasting snowflakes, watching a snowstorm through the living room window, or falling in the soft snow is always exciting and sparks the imagination. Each movement of this suite paints a scene. In Snowflakes, the pizzicato notes depict flakes landing on a nose or finger long enough to be marveled at before melting away. Snowstorm’s perpetual motion feel, with dramatic changes in dynamics, draws the listener into imagining wild winter winds. Finally, after the storm, children and adults alike fall into the powdery snow creating charming and delightful Snow Angels.Performance NotesMost students are adept at pizzicato by the grade 1 orchestra level, and this piece provides the opportunity to review pizzicato technique for good tone. Recommended pizzicato technique includes the thick part of the fingertip over the fingerboard, producing tone with depth and allowing the resonance to create a rich orchestra sound. The detaché bowing is truly detached in Snowstorm with contrasting legato bow strokes in Snow Angels.For schools that encourage writing across the curriculum, teachers may encourage students to write a short imaginative story about the snow themes in this music. STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts, and Mathematics) lessons may include snowflake crystal structures and snowstorm weather patterns.

The air is heavy with flashy comments, when the flute, the bassoon and the piano start their debate in Storm in a Teacup (2014) by Kirmo Lintinen (b. 1967). Only 4'30'' of length, this virtuosic trio finds the piece after the grand rampage. Kirmo Lintinen is a man of many musical talents: composer, pianist and conductor. His catalogue encompasses almost all genres and categories of composition, from solo work to opera, and he operates with ease from one to another without being a crossover artist; in his case, the versatility is both internalised and innate. He often finds inspiration in French music of the 1920s and its intrinsic musicality. Humour and playfulness are characteristic elements of his music, as are a natural, musicianly approach and an enchantingly effervescent, even tongue-in-cheek texture.

An original musical depiction of one of nature's more violent events. Beginning with a serene introduction . . . the calm before the storm . . . the music quickly portrays the fury. After gradually building to an intense percussive climax, the storm quickly moves away. Peace and calm return once again. This is a very impressive composition. Highly recommended.

Heissa, hopsa, bei Regen und Wind - from Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night' Unklar bleibt warum Sibelius etwa zeitgleich eine weitere Fassung des Werks nur mit deutschem Text fur Singstimme und Streichorchester anfertigte. Soweit bekannt wurde diese Fassung vor ihrer erstmaligen Veroffentlichung im Jahr 2003 in der Gesamtausgabe ,,Jean Sibelius Werke (JSW) noch nicht aufgefuhrt. It remains uncertain why Sibelius wrote another version of the work with German text only for voice and string orchestra around the same time. As far as is known this latter version has never been performed before its first publication in the volume of the complete edition Jean Sibelius Works in 2003. In den meisten Fallen beschrankte sich Sibelius auf ein relativ kleines Orchester. In ,,Varen flyktar hastigt sind neben den Streichern nur zwei Floten und vier Horner besetzt. Nearly all of the orchestral arrangements were made years after the original compositions for voice and piano. Yet even though the arrangements were made in a very short period of time Sibelius handled the combination of solo voice and orchestra in all songs with equal mastery sometimes creating dark and dramatic atmospheres (in Pa verandan vid havet) sometimes radiant colorful impressions (in Soluppgang) or light-colored transparent textures (in Varen flyktar hastigt) and always basing his ideas on the poetic idea of the song while discovering refined ways of supporting it. In most cases Sibelius used a comparatively small orchestra: Varen flyktar hastigt has only two flute and four horns added to the strings. Mit dem Erscheinen der Erstausgabe 1986 eroberte sich das Werk rasch seinen Platz neben den anderen Streichorchesterwerken des finnischen Komponisten. Das vorliegende Impromptu entstand Anfang 1894, als Jean Sibelius die kurz zuvor komponierten Klavier-Impromptus op. 5 Nr. 5 und Nr. 6 zusammenfugte und fur Streichorchester instrumentierte. Die beiden im Gestus vollig unterschiedlichen Charakterstudien finden dabei zu einem einheitlichen Ganzen da Sibelius das Hauptthema aus dem sturmischen.

From Robert Buckley's grandly cinematic suite describing impressions of the seas of the moon, the second movement, Foaming Sea, was inspired by the composer watching the ocean during a violent storm with waves exploding and crashing. The sense of excitement and exhilaration eventually leads to the calm after the storm, as turbulent darkness gives way to light. Dur: 4:40.
