Score and Parts Woodwind Quintet (Score & Parts) - Grade 5 SKU: HL.4008710 Double Wind Quintet, Grade 5 Score and Parts. Composed by Gauthier Dupertuis. FC Music Publishing. Chamber, Concert. Softcover. Hal Leonard #FCMP006-ENS. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.4008710). ISBN 9798350115758. UPC: 196288190905. A trip to India inspired Gauthier Dupertuis to write Dystopia for double wind quintet, a composition commissioned to him by the Swiss conductor Felix Hauswirth, on the occasion of the aVENTura Festival in Lucerne in September 2023 dedicated to Swiss composers. In October 2018 Gauthier Dupertuis had the opportunity of accompanying the Wind Orchestra La Landwehr de Fribourg, (Switzerland), asan instrumentalist during a concert tour around India. Travel between the different cities was punctuated by the horns of the different vehicles on the road, which appeared to be in competition with each other in terms of their creativity. Their bus was no exception to this rule, and the composer ended up letting himself be inspired by this five-note pattern which, through repetition, ended up anchoring itself deeply in his brain, until it served as a musical basis for this work. Dystopia exploits the notion of duality: in two parts (I. Preludio and II. Toccata), the work uses the double wind quintet sometimes as a single entity and sometimes as two or three groups in constant rhythmic, harmonic, or writing contrast. Like in a dystopia, where the hero constantly struggles against an oppressive society, the thematic group linked to motif A (that of the car horns, set out at the beginning of the Prelude) confronts that linked to motif B (exposed at bar 25) throughout the piece. Similarly, the free form of the Prelude contrasts with the more defined structure of the Toccata where the atmospheres linked to the two thematic groupsalternate. Two short episodes highlight a third motif, more arioso, serving as divertissement and rhythmic appeasement within the Toccata. $48.00 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 2 to 3 weeks | | |

Concert Band/Harmonie - Grade 6 SKU: BT.GOB-000963-140 Voyage au Centr...(+)
Concert Band/Harmonie - Grade 6 SKU: BT.GOB-000963-140 Voyage au Centre de la Terre. Composed by Harrie Janssen. Score Only. 120 pages. Gobelin Music Publications #GOB 000963-140. Published by Gobelin Music Publications (BT.GOB-000963-140). This composition was based on the world-famous novel by the French author Jules Verne. This novel describes the attempt to reach the centre of the earth. The descent of the crater of the volcano called Snaeffels, situated in Iceland, marks thebeginning of this voyage to the sublunary world. The German geologist, professor Lidenbrock, is accompanied on this trip by his nephew Axel and an Icelandic guide named Hans. The last mentioned will be helpful in many occasions.
Dark colors & mist
The composer tried in this single work to give a musical expression to various significant moments from this novel. In the introduction he sketches an image of the dismal ambience on the island by using dark colors. Risingfragments of mist reveal the flanks of the monumental mountain Scataris. The composer tries to catch this image in a majestic and broad chorale.
Away from Iceland
Subsequently the ostinato rhythmicity and virtuosity representthe hectic descent of the crater of the volcano. The party descends ever more and more and travels south, away from Iceland. On the way, they see all kinds of rock formations, fossils and minerals. At a depth of thirty hours walking distance, atabout 150 kilometers below the surface, they reach a sub terrestrial sea which is called the Lidenbrock sea.
Genuine eruption of sounds
Strange electric manifestations and unpredictable weather conditions accompany thissingular phenomenon. An orchestral tutti-episode expresses this impression musically. On a make-shift raft, the party continues its voyage, heading to the south coast of this huge sea. Once ashore, an enormous rock obstructs the passage. The blowingup of this obstacle unleashes a genuine eruption of sounds in the orchestration.
Spat out by the volcano
But the explosion has an unforeseen side effect. The sea - travelers and raft included - is sucked upwards into a dark hole.Again, our heroes are accompanied on their involuntary voyage, while left to fend for themselves, by an ever increasing ostinato rhythmicity.
Before an irruption can destroy the raft, the threesome manages to escape and climb up through acave towards the daylight. They seem to be spat out by the Stromboli volcano on the island of Sicily, far from home. The composition ends with triumphant sounds that represent the scientific triumph of these adventurers.
De compositie 'Voyage au centre de la terre ....' is gebaseerd op de wereldberoemde roman van de Franse schrijver Jules Verne. Het boek beschrijft de poging het middelpunt van de aarde te bereiken. Een afdaling van de op IJslandgesitueerde vulkaankrater 'de Sneffels', markeert het begin van deze reis in het ondermaanse. De Duitse geoloog professor Lidenbrock wordt hierbij vergezeld door zijn neefje Axel en een IJslandse gids genaamd Hans. Laatstgenoemdezal in menig netelige situatie nog van pas komen.
De componist heeft getracht in dit eendelige werk een aantal significante momenten uit deze roman te verklanken. In de inleiding wordt door middel van donkere kleureneen beeld geschetst van de desolate sfeer op het eiland. Optrekkende flarden nevel onthullen de flanken van de monumentale berg 'de Scartaris'. De componist tracht dit beeld te vangen in een majestueus, breed opgezet koraal. Vervolgens staan ostinate ritmiek en virtuositeit voor de hectische afdaling in de vulkaankrater. De groep daalt dieper en dieper af, en reist daarbij zuidwaards, weg van IJsland. Onderweg komen ze allerlei rotsformaties,fossielen en mineralen tegen. Op een diepte van 'dertig uur gaans', op ca. 150 km. diepte, bereikt het gezelschap een onderaardse zee die 'de Lidenbrockzee' genoemd wordt. Vreemd aandoende electrische verschijnselen enonvoorspelbare weersomstandigheden vergezellen dit zonderlinge fenomeen. In een orkestrale tutti-episode wordt deze indruk verklankt. Op een provisorisch gebouwd vlot vervolgt het groepje hun reis, daarbij koersend naar dezuidkust van deze enorme zee. Eenmaal aan wal gekomen verspert een enorm rotsblok verdere doorgang. Het opblazen van dit obstakel ontketent een ware klankeruptie in het orkest. Echter, de ontploffing heeft een onvoorzien neveneffect. $58.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 4 to 6 weeks | | |

Orchestra Cello, Contrabass, Piano, Viola, Violin 1, Violin 2, Violin 3 - Grade 3 SKU: CF.CAS80 Composed by Deborah Baker Monday. Carl Fischer Concert String Orchestra Series. Set of Score and Parts. With Standard notation. 16+8+5+2+5+5+4+12 pages. Duration 3 minutes, 43 seconds. Carl Fischer Music #CAS80. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.CAS80). ISBN 9780825894817. UPC: 798408094812. 9 x 12 inches. Key: D major. Composer Deborah Baker Monday provides us with an exciting new composition that contains all of the grandeur of the American West. With wide open spaces, reminiscent of pieces from the Americana composers of the last century, this will be a perfect choice to highlight your group at contest and festival performances. Canyonland Skies is a programmatic work which was composed for the 2013 Utah/American String Teachers Association (ASTA) composition competition. The required element for the contest was that the entry should have a theme based on something native to the state of Utah.This original work attempts to represent the brilliance of the Utah sky; the clearest blue by day, with its blinding bright sun and the deepest dark blue of night, with a palette of stars which are breathtaking. The sunrise and sunset scenarios are uniquely remarkable from wherever one may be observing. At any one moment or another, these magnificent visions of color are always fresh and different.Canyonland Skies uses the bright key of D major to maximize the sonority of the string instruments. Excellent opportunities for drone-like intonation practices abound. Scalewise passages build and build for the strong harmonic changes which drive the piece to a contrasting section.G major dominates the jaunty middle section, which suggests a smooth ride on an open road. Melodic opportunities abound while the piece soars to a satisfying reflection of the opening material.Canyonland Skies is the winning Composition of the 2013 Composition Contest sponsored by the Utah Chapter of the American String Teachers Association.Sit back and begin a road trip with your students. With your navigation they will create a soundtrack for this beautiful journey. About Carl Fischer Concert String Orchestra Series This series of pieces (Grade 3 and higher) is designed for advancing ensembles.

Theodore Presser Company #414-41163. Published by Theodore Presser Company (PR.414411630). ISBN 9781491114551. UPC: 680160089956. 9.5 x 13 inches. EXCURSIONS is a one-movement work exploring two “characters.†A rhapsodic, descending passage is introduced by the cello, followed by a static, chorale-like phrase for the violin and cello. Their individual developments are separated by a slow, contrasting middle section. The composer has written: “This is analogous to situations in life: we stand by a crossroad, choosing one option and forfeiting the other. But in art, the realm of the imagination, we can perhaps afford to pursue more than one route to its ultimate destination… or can we? It is symbolic that in this work both roads eventually lead to the same place.â€. Excursions for violin, cello and piano, is a one-movement work of tripartite structure in which materials explored in the first of three large sections are brought back in the last section. The traditional statement-contrast-restatement form, which is readily suggested by such a description, is, however, not at all in the mold in which the work is cast. Rather, my aim was to subject the essential materials of the piece (two “characters†–the rhapsodic, descending passage played by the cello in the very opening and, later, a static, slow moving, chorale-like phrase for the violin and cello) to two entirely different developments separated by a slow, contrasting middle section. This is analogous to an exploration of the ramifications that two divergent choices made by the same person might lead to. In life, as we stand by a crossroad, choosing one option usually means having to forfeit the other. But in art, the realm of the imagination, we can perhaps afford to pursue more than one route to its ultimate destination…or can we? It is, I believe, symbolic that in this work both roads eventually lead to the same place: in composing Excursions, it seemed absolutely inescapable that at the end the slow, contrasting middle sections – both more resigned and peaceful than the battling spirits of the outer parts – should return briefly to end the work. The piano trio combination (once highly favored, but to this composer still as challenging today) is approached here as a collaborative effort of three equal soloists – partners. Of the available pairings, the two strings find themselves occasionally approached as a team pitted against the piano. The cello-piano combination is also not uncommon here, and there is an extended violin cadenza toward the end of the piece. The writing for the three instruments is closely and at times interlinked, but the players are all instructed to play from scores. Excursions was first performed at Brandeis University in 1982. $80.00 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 24 hours - In Stock | | |
