Everything I Thought I Wanted was composed Fall 2022 through Spring 2023, when I was musing (perhaps more than usual) about my childhood wishes and dreams and trying to translate some of those musings into music. Full disclosure: this is an assignment I typically give my composition students; maybe I thought I’d try my own assignment. Sonically, this influenced the choice of instrumentation, and led to the inclusion of the toy piano, kalimba, glockenspiel, and crotales into the ensemble. Individual movements initially had specific impressionistic titles, though I removed them after they were completed, hoping to inspire more open-minded listening and personal imagery. I am deeply grateful to Doug Perkins, who organized the wonderful consortium of percussion studio teachers around the US to co-commission the work.

This 5-movement, multi-media choral drama honors one of the great heroes of the emancipation era. The journey of those who sacrificed becomes a story we can relive and honor. Dr. Kean's goal was to compose and arrange original music and traditional spirituals in a style that is evocative of the enslaved Africans' frame of mind. The spirituals are accompanied with kalimba (thumb piano) to honor the sub-Saharan African musical tradition of connecting with ancestors and with the marimba to sound like the west African balafon. This is a work that will move an audience to tears. Medium to difficult. The Journey of Harriet Tubman has generated a much needed discussion of African American enslavement and and cultural appropriation. The composer has dedicated half of his royalties from this work to â??The Equal Justice Initiative,â? a private, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that is committed to ending mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States, to challenging racial and economic injustice, and to protecting basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society.

Preface / Programme Note (UK-TEXT TO FOLLOW)Slagtøjssolisten er den gennemgående skikkelse og hovedperson i musikkens”tre scener”.Begrebet ”scene” kan forstås flertydigt, både som det fysiske sted, platformen,hvor man optræder og spiller musik og drama og som betegnelsen for defortællende forløb og afsnit i en dramatisk forestilling.Mine musikalske ”scener” udfolder sig i tre forskellige sceniskefremtrædelsesformer og ensembler. Den første scene er præget af diskrete ogmelodiske slagtøjsinstrumenter, vibrafon og marimba, med modspil fra de trestrygere.I den anden scene er spotlightet på slagtøjssolisten alene, vi møder hovedpersonen/solisten i en monolog, fremførthovedsageligt på ”syngende sav”, der skal trakteresmed den yderste mikrotonale præcision. Vi hører også solisten spille på Kalimba,ligeledes et folkeligt instrument, men nu med afrikansk baggrund i modsætningtil den hjemlige gårdsangers ”musikalske sav” et ofte hørt lydbillede frakomponistens barndom på Nørrebro.I den tredje scene er det en blæsertrio, der indledningsvis spiller op til slagtøjetsforskellige kraftfulde trommer. Efter en tromme-kadence sætter alle syv musikereind sammen, for første og eneste gang. Værket afsluttes med en kort slagtøjssolo.I en ”programmatisk tolkning” kan de tre scener ses som repræsenterende tretilbagevendende stadier:det indadvendt/drømmendedet udadvendt/agerendedet daglige drama mellem os alle.Per Nørgård, februar 2010.

Safari effectively combines the well-known folk song Kum Ba Yah with some uniquely African sounds available on the play along accompaniment recording; wild animals, kalimba, African flutes and exotic percussion instruments. Great fun for the less experienced band. This work was originally published as part of the Play Along Twin Pak #1 which is no longer available.
