Written for the 1999 Wisconsin Honors Jazz Ensemble, this tune combines a powerful hip-hop groove, hard-hitting ensemble figures, unique harmonies, compelling minimalist features, and a touch of humor in a musical salute to Green Bay Packers legend Ray Nitschke. Brass ranges are reasonable, and highly accessible improvisation showcases for tenor sax and trumpet are included. The alternating 4/4 and 2/4 bars throughout may seem a little intimidating at first, but will fall into place quickly.

In late 1950s Brazil, a new music style influenced by jazz arose out of the samba: the bossa nova. This composition by Peter Kleine Schaars sounds just like a bossa nova should sound: catchy, warm, relaxed and with a touch ofsensuality. Starting with a small group of players with only one soloist and minimal accompaniment, this bossa nova leads to a style-conscious grand orchestration for the whole ensemble, in which all voices participate equally. Inaddition to the rhythmic cells 2 and 4 of the Brazilian 2-3 clave, the cells 7 and 10 in particular are featured.

Eind jaren vijftig van de vorige eeuw ontstond in Brazilië vanuit de door jazz be nvloede samba een nieuwe muziekstijl: de bossanova. Deze compositie van Peter Kleine Schaars klinkt zoals het een bossanova betaamt: prettig in hetgehoor liggend, warm, rustig en een tikje sensueel. Vanuit een kleine bezetting met slechts één solist en minimale begeleiding mondt deze bossanova uit in een stijlbewuste grootse orkestratie voor het gehele ensemble waarin allestemmen gelijkwaardig aan bod komen. Naast de ritmische cellen 2 en 4 van de Braziliaanse 2-3-clave worden met name ook de cellen 7 en 10 behandeld.

In den späten 1950er Jahren entstand aus der Samba ein neuer, vom Jazz beeinflusster Musikstil: der Bossa nova. Diese Komposition von Peter Kleine Schaars klingt so, wie ein Bossa nova klingen sollte: eingängig, warm, entspanntund mit einem Hauch von Sinnlichkeit. Beginnend mit einer kleinen Gruppe von Musikern, die nur aus einem Solisten und minimaler Begleitung besteht, führt dieser Bossa nova zu einer stilvollen großartigen Orchestrierung für dasgesamte Ensemble, an der alle Stimmen gleichermaßen beteiligt werden. Neben den Rhythmus-Einheiten 2 und 4 des brasilianischen 2-3-Clave werden insbesondere die Rhythmus-Einheiten 7 und 10 verwendet.

la fin des années 1950, au Brésil, la samba donna naissance un nouveau style de musique influencé par le jazz : la bossa-nova. Les sonorités de cette composition de Peter Kleine Schaars reproduisent exactement celles de labossa-nova : chaudes, accrocheuses, décontractées, avec une touche de sensualité. Débutant avec un petit groupe de musiciens fournissant un accompagnement sobre un unique soliste, cette pièce se métamorphose en une grandeorchestration bossa-novesque pour l’ensemble entier, laquelle participent toutes les voix de manière égale. Outre les cellules rythmiques 2 et 4 de la clave brésilienne 2-3, les cellules 7 et 10 sont particulièrement présentesici.

The spotlight is on the whole band with this hard-driving rock chart! Lots of great ensemble and soli writing. The key changes (using accidentals) keep lifting the excitement level all the way to the end. While the performance demands are minimal (no solos. trumpets never leave the staff) your band will love the powerful, full sound they create with this chart.

The inspirational foundation is the Emily Dickinson poem of the same name. Through five movements, each named after a phrase from the poem, Hedwig builds his dialogue slowly in intensity. The music moves, generally, from darkness to light, with occasional moments of reflection and conflict along the way as the drama unfolds...The musical language combines elements of traditional musical melody and tonality, with atonality, minimalism, and even hints of jazz...traces of traditional religious liturgical musical forms and idioms, as well. (Chattanooga Symphony and Opera program notes) For advanced performers.
