'Romance for violin and piano is a short, reflective piece that exploits the lyrical qualities inherent in the combination. Originally written for a very young but talented violinist, Romance travels through numerous moods andcolours within a continuous musical development of the opening material. At first gentle and reflective with increasing dramatic outbursts outlined by the violin sforzandi and parallel sixths in the piano writing, numerous shortsolo passages in both instruments culminate in a fiery climax. Quickly subsiding into the calmer yet now more melancholy strains of the earlier stages of the piece, the ending is somewhat incomplete. This seems to suggest acontinuous turn of events alluded to in the music.'

Irish Lullaby is based on the song Too-Ra-Loo-Ra-Loo-Ral  (That's an Irish Lullaby).  Carl Strommen does what he does best in creating a beautifully orchestrated piece with diverse harmonies that will be the highlight of your next concert. It will be a great piece to teach phrasing and musicianship.
Too-Ra-Loo-Ra-Loo-Ral (“That’s An Irish Lullaby” ) was written in 1913 by composer James Royce Shannon (1881–1946) for the Tin Pan Alley musical, Shameen Dhu. The original recording by Chauncy Olcott became No. 1 on the music charts. The song was then brought back to prominence by Bing Crosby’s performance in the film Going My Way (1944). Crosby’s solo sold over one million copies.The University of Notre Dame Band, started in 1845, is the oldest college band (in continuous existence) in the United States. The band played as students left to join the armies during the Civil War, World War 1 and 2, Korea and Vietnam. In 1871, the band played a benefit concert for the victims of the Great Chicago Fire. The bands performances in countless settings and venues include the Sydney Opera House, Bejing Concert Hall, Carnegie Hall, and, in 2011, was awarded the prestigious Sudler Trophy, considered the “Heisman Trophy” of Collegiate bands.The Bands Director, Ken Dye, is only the sixth director in its long history.

Soaring melodic lines combine with a lush harmonic palette to deliver a poignant reflection in this 21 minute reflection on coming-of-age, maturity, and perspective. This five-movement for choir, oboe, and horn (opt. string quartet) is a shimmering setting of the words of William Wordsworth. A wonderful secular multi-movement work that is a perfect centerpiece for your community and collegiate concert.
