Call of the Ancient Clans takes players back to the time of the dawn of man, when neighboring tribes could communicate with each other not by racing through the harsh jungle or dry desert, but by the use of different rhythm instruments. Music was also used in religious rituals, celebrations and to share the history of the group.With an interesting, pulsating rhythm and catchy woodwind lines, Call of the Ancient Clans is sure to light a fire under students and get them involved in making some exhilarating music. The notes can be easily played by those with over a year of band experience, but will also provide a good challenge, as the first clarinets do go over the break a couple of times.Students will have a lot of fun playing double forte (who doesn’t?). However, caution students that playing “as loud as you can” can lead to bad-sounding notes. Balance with the person next to you; if you can’t hear them, you’re too loud. Double forte is a bit like calling to your friend from across the gym when nobody else is in there. You don’t want to be louder than that.Who has the melody at each rehearsal mark? Your students should know and if they do not, tell them. If they don’t have the melody, they need to back off their notes and play softer. Let the melody shine.Balance will make this piece truly sing. I hope you enjoy playing it; I loved writing it.

“I am not a doctor and cannot legally prescribe any kind of stress-reducing medication for dealing with parents, budgets, students, principals, coaches, dropouts, or whatever else you could add to this list. But I can confidently recommend laughter, often called the best medicine, and my number one recommendation in the laughter field for band directors is any of the five books of Trey Reely. “ —David Newell From the Foreword Nobody gets the life of a band director quite like Trey Reely. His columns in The Instrumentalist magazine have entertained an entire generation of band directors, capturing all the humor and poignant moments like no other writer. Here’s an example from “You Do the Math: Formulas for Disaster” in this volume:                            band director + parent + principal                    band director + parent + principal + superintendent            band director + parent + principal + superintendent + school board band director + parent + principal + superintendent + school board + local media Mr. Holland Rides Again is the newest installment of the Mr. Holland series by Reely, who has been described as “James Thurber, Woody Allen, Art Buchwald, and Dave Barry rolled into a single person.” Laugh along with a seasoned Arkansas band director as he explores “Mozart and Microbes,” “Things to Do with a Broken Music Stand,” “Headlines from the Podium,” and “Bach: The Selected Tweets,” among other enlightening topics. Reely’s unique, rambunctious style is full of wit and wisdom that will reduce any band director’s stress instantly. Mr. Holland Rides Again is chock full of laughter and wisdom that will have you smiling, nodding your head in agreement, and rushing to share with musical friends.
