Matt Turner's impressive list of award-winning compositions will just keep growing as he adds pieces like this to his repertoire! Zydeco Zephyr starts out with some boogie-woogie and then moves to a fiddling style in the second half. Not only can you hear the train within the music, but this work also includes an opportunity for a soloist to improvise. An example solo is provided, but this is a great way to get your kids to express themselves musically.
Zydeco Zephyr combines elements of zydeco and bluegrass. Zydeco is a combination of many styles including Cajun, blues, and rock, and is known for its use of accordion, fiddle, and washboard. The first section of Zydeco Zephyr is influenced by doo-wop, a style zydeco musician Clifton Chenier used in his songs. The cellos introduce the second section with a “train” groove in m. 27. A solo section offers students the opportunity to improvise using a D mixolydian mode (D, E, F≥, G, A, B, C, D), and a sample solo is provided. This piece uses straighteighths (no swing!) and should be performed with a great deal of energy. Who knows, you may just make people in the audience get up and dance!Suggested listening: Clifton Chenier, King of the Bayous on Arhoolie Records.

Score and Parts Concert Band (Score & Parts) - Grade 4

SKU: HL.50606648

For Cimbalom or Marimba and Concert Band Score and Parts. Composed by Arpad Balázs. EMB. Contemporary, Hungarian. Softcover. 276 pages. Duration 660 seconds. Editio Musica Budapest #Z15167SET. Published by Editio Musica Budapest (HL.50606648).

Árpád Balázs (*1937) composed the first version of Rhapsody for Hungarian cimbalom and concert band in 2001; in 2021, on the encouragement by a Japanese marimba player he arranged the solo part for marimba, and therefore the opportunities for the work to beplayed have significantly widened. The Rhapsody follows the one-movement structure created by Franz Liszt. The beginning solo section of the cimbalom (or marimba) returns before the coda as a pillar of the form. The composition, which can be divided into five sections, develops and works with a Lydian tetrachordal motif (G-A-B-C sharp) in different characters, stretching the span of music from a simple, children's song-like appearance to an obstinate ritual dance. In conclusion, the Rhapsody is a passionately emotional lyric orchestral poem rich in colours and characters, which has a place on the repertoire of every concert band playing quality music.
