Italy, Rome particularly, has been unfathomed source of inspiration for several compositions by Kai Nieminen (1953-), starting from his neo-impressionistic orchestral piece Vicoli in ombra (1995). Some twenty years later, in 2016 he wrote Frammenti dal buio... (inspirazioni Caravaggesche) for Trio la Rue. Basically, the work is combination of sacred and profane. Caravaggio, short story by Antonio Tabucchi and three paintings, Saint Francis in Prayer (1610), Saint Francis of Assisi in Ecstasy (1595), and Medusa (1597), all by Caravaggio, church bells, and a puppet theater near Villa Lante in Rome gave inspiration to the composer during the composition process. Trio la Rue gave the first performance on 26th October, 2016 at Villa Lante.

Original Anthem
Natalie Sleeth's original SATB choral setting is also known as In the Bulb There Is a Flower. The provocative text relates both to our present life and our hope of eternal life, as expressed in I Corinthians 15:35-58. This fresh setting emphasizes the resurrected life as it builds to the final victory stanza with driving rhythm and a change to common meter (4/4). This arrangement is also available in a medium-voice vocal solo in the key of F.

Please note that the Conductor's Score in the Orchestraion is hand written and marked. For this reason, the Orchestration is available at a reduced price of $30 dollars.

The Five Divertimenti K. 439b consists of 25 pieces originally scored for two clarinets or basset horns and bassoon. It is assumed that Mozart wrote these works for the Stadler brothers, Anton (famous for the Clarinet Concerto) and Johann. Originally scored in C major (Mr. Sauer has arranged them in keys that are more suitable for the Trombone), the 25 pieces were grouped into five movements each. The styles of the movements include Sonata-allegro, Minuet and Trio, Larghetto, Adagio, Rondo and even a Polonaise. This collection of the Five Divertimenti is an immense amount (about 45 minutes total) of very entertaining music, all beautifully arranged by Ralph Sauer for three advanced Trombonists.

Wolverine Trail is a concert march for beginning bands and is rather helpful in introducing beginners to the march form and style. This piece is based in the key of Eb major and uses only the first seven notes taught in most method books. It is also rhythmically accessible to beginners, as simple eighth-note combinations are the most difficult rhythms in this march. The piece follows standard march form except that is does not modulate at the trio section.
When writing this piece, I was thinking of my beginning band students at Polk County Middle School. Our school is located at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and is surrounded by dense pine forests. The mascot of our school is rather fittingly the wolverine; hence, our school is located on the street named “Wolverine Trail.” Learning to be a musician is not an easy trial, as it requires hard work, dedication, and endurance. However, the trail to becoming a musician is full of rewarding and breathtaking experiences. As I wrote this piece, I was inspired by the rugged beauty of our school’s location and also how I am helping my beginner students to start on the trail to becoming mature musicians.Wolverine Trail is a concert march for beginning bands and is rather helpful in introducing beginners to the march form and style.

The piece follows standard march form except that is does not modulate at the trio section which begins at m. 57. It is my hope that this piece will help you and your beginners start your own musical trailblazing.

Harm Evers schreef het swingende Saxophone Jubilee als eerbetoon aan Adolphe Sax, die ruim anderhalve eeuw geleden de saxofoon uitvond. De drie voorgeschreven saxofoonpartijen kunnen in verschillende combinaties worden gespeeld,zodat het werk goed uitvoerbaar is door vrijwel elk orkest dat over ten minste drie saxofonisten beschikt.

Vor mehr als 100 Jahren erfand der belgische Instrumentenbauer Adolphe Sax das nach ihm benannte Saxophon. Ihm zu Ehren schrieb Harm Evers das swingende Werk Saxophon Jubilee. Die Saxophonstimmen können in verschiedenen Kombinationen gespielt werden, so dass Ihr Blasorchester das Stück schon mit drei Saxophonisten aufführen kann. Ein schwungvoller Spaß, nicht nur für die Saxophonisten!

Saxophone Jubilee rend hommage au célèbre inventeur Adolphe Sax qui, vers 1840, décide de fabriquer un nouvel instrument qu’il baptise d’après son propre nom. Cette pièce pleine de fraîcheur met en valeur un trio de saxophones dont la composition peut varier (voix solistes éditées en Sib et Mib). Le rythme swing donne la pièce un effet sautillant et divertissant.

Fritz Kreisler (1875-1962) was considered one of the greatest violinists of all time. He was also known for composing a number of pieces for violin to be played as solos for encores. Many of them are known as pastiches, which are works composed in the styles of other composers. He also wrote operettas, a string quartet and many cadenzas which are the most often played by violinists today. Tempo di Minuetto, written in the style of Gaetano Pugnani, is a work for violin and piano that has become a standard in the solo repertoire. Kreisler also composed his well known Praeludium and Allegro in the style of this eighteenth-century Italian composer/violinist. In this arrangement, the solo violin part has been integrated into the string orchestra. The work has been cleverly adapted so that all string parts have thematic interest. It is written in a basic minuet-and-trio form which will offer many teaching points on style and historical perspective. The arranger suggests that the director and students become acquainted with the original work for solo violin and piano to familiarize them with the style intended by Kreisler. This will help them recreate these styles in their orchestral performance.
