Sa
ving Private Ryan is
certainly one of Steven
Spielberg's most powerful
films. The brilliant John
Williams score creates
part of this power.
Hymn to the Fallen
one of the most powerful
and emotional melodies
which appears during the
closing credits, evokes a
feeling of hope and
strength amid the overall
tone of reverence. Philip
Sparke has transcribed
this moving work for
brass band using John
Williams original
orchestral score as the
source. For added effect
this work can also be
performed with a wordless
chorus, with parts being
available separately.
A
terrific Brass Band
arrangement of Johnm
Williams' Hymn To The
Fallen from the
paramount and DreamWorks
motion picture Saving
Private Ryan - by
Philip Sparke.
Saving Private
Ryan is beslist een
van de meest
indrukwekkende films van
Steven Spielberg. De
effecten van zijn grootse
fotografie en de
uitmuntende
acteerprestaties in de
film creeren samen een
emotioneel schokeffect,
metname in de laatste
momenten van de film,
aldus John Williams in
zijn voorwoord bij de
orkestscore van de
filmmuziek. Deze
transcriptie van Philip
Sparke benadert de
originele score zo dicht
mogelijk. De optionele
koorpartijen
zijnafzonderlijk
verkrijgbaar.
Kaum
ein Film hat die Wirren
des zweiten Weltkriegs je
ehrlicher und in so
erschutternden und
eindrucksvollen Bildern
dargestellt, als Steven
Spielbergs Der Soldat
James Ryan. Die Musik
zu dem monumentalen Epos
stammt vom grossen
amerikanischen
Filmmusikkomponisten John
Williams, der sein Werk
den gefallenen
Kriegshelden widmete.

Avalonâ€
Long Live the
King is a medieval
fantasy piece depicting
the Isle of Avalon where
the mystical sword
Excalibur of King Arthur
was forged. Composer
Tyler Arcari unearths a
solid piece for young
bands that is both bold
and dramatic. This piece
is sure to spark the
imagination of students
and give them strong
musical content with
which they can develop
their
musicianship. Program
Notes:Avalon–Long
live the King began its
journey as a commission
in honor of a dear friend
and mentor. David Riggs
is one of those band
directors that just seems
timeless. He is a
powerhouse with such a
stacked resume that it is
easy to forget that at
the end of the day he
enjoys taking long bike
rides with his lovely
wife and whittling a
piece of wood just as
much as being a band
director. He has touched
so many lives and
inspired so many people
in our field and beyond.
I was humbled, and
honored, when I was
contacted for the
commission. To David, I
hope that you one day
know how much you mean to
so many people, including
myself.About the
piece:The piece is
written with a little
homage to David’s
long tenure at Avalon
Middle school in Pace,
Florida. He was certainly
treated like a king as
the band director and
rightly so. It seemed
only fitting to add a
little medieval fantasy.
Avalon is a mystical
island in the world of
King Arthur where the
great sword Excalibur was
forged.The piece begins
lyrically with a slow
introduction with melodic
material. This melodic
motive is used throughout
with slight variations
depending on the
instrument voicing etc.
Care should be taken at
m. 10 that the Timpani
roll helps to bridge our
transition from an
exposed section to full
tutti. Care should be
taken so that the tempo
change at m. 19 is brisk
and avoids the low brass
turning into stomping.
Accessories like the
China cymbal and
tambourine can become
overpowering. I recommend
having students think of
these effects as
background in order to
make sure they
don’t POP out. The
dynamic changes at mm.
27-35 should be subito
similar to orchestral
dynamic changes. Avoid
unwritten crescendos in
this section. Measures
60–64 are a great
opportunity to teach
those unwritten dynamics
that make music so
enjoyable as we lead up
to the finale. It was
originally left blank for
some theatrics in the
premiere at
David’s retirement
concert so I know he
would enjoy adding some
Cholesterol as David
would say.Long Live the
King!

Tarta
n Tapestries is an
original piece that sets
out to emulate Scottish
folk music. Composer
Larry Clark has created a
concert overture in
triple meter to capture
the essence of music from
Scotland. After a lilting
first section, lush
and beautiful moments
weave a tapestry of
sounds with the lyrical,
middle section of the
piece. There is an
optional part for
bagpipes, and an optional
ending should you chose
to use this instrument as
part of the piece. Alert
your contest music
committee about this
strong new piece for
advancing
groups. Tartan
Tapestries was
commissioned by Friends
of the Arts for the Saint
Andrew's School Band in
Boca Raton,
Florida. The band
program at Saint
Andrew’s School is
under the direction of
Andrea Wolgin. The
premiere took place on
November 29, 2017.When I
was asked by their
conductor Ms. Wolgin to
write a piece for the
Saint Andrew’s
School, I asked her what
kind of involvement she
wanted the students to
have in the process. We
discussed several options
for having the students
involved in the process
of creating with the type
of piece they wanted.Â
We set up a
“Skypeâ€
meeting with members of
the band to discuss the
piece. During this
discussion, the consensus
of the students was that
they wanted a piece
depicting the Scottish
influence to the
school. They also
wanted a piece that would
challenge all sections of
the band and to include
bagpipes if possible. I
asked that the students
be involved in helping to
name the piece once it
was completed, for which
they agreed and were very
helpful. Armed with
this information, I set
out to compose a piece
for them, and Tartan
Tapestries is the
result.The piece begins
with a fanfare gesture
based upon rhythms and
harmonies that appear
throughout the piece. I
chose the lilting triple
feel to the piece, to
bring about the Scottish
flavor. I wanted the
fanfare to be bardic
sounding, to depict the
strength of the Scottish
people and for the piece
to have a dynamic
opening. The fanfare
contains material that
alludes to the main theme
and with a bit of
dissonance and tension
that is resolved in the
main body of the
piece.The main theme is a
lilting original melody,
but one that I hope with
have the essence of
Scottish folk songs. The
main idea is followed by
a more modal and dark
sounding secondary theme,
first stated in the
horns. This material
is later used in the
development section of
the piece. The main
theme returns several
times, with different and
varied orchestrations and
harmonic treatments. This
is followed by a short
transition leading to the
more lyrical and slower
second section of the
piece. A transparent
presentation of the
lyrical theme, which is
based on aspects of the
main theme, is presented
first by a solo flute.
This section is a nod to
famous composer Malcom
Arnold’s wonderful
works for orchestra in
its style and
orchestration. After a
transition or bridge
section with a solo
euphonium, the piece
builds to a dramatic
climax of the lyrical
theme by the full band.
This subsides to a return
of the solo flute to end
this second section of
the piece, followed by a
transition back the main
theme.The solo bagpipes
play a central role in
the return of the main
theme and take center
stage after being heard
in the distance earlier
in the work. The piece
brings back a shortened
version of the darker
secondary theme, followed
by a hint of the fanfare
material that builds to
one last statement of the
main theme by the full
band, before leading to a
dramatic coda to complete
the work.It has been my
pleasure to have been
given the opportunity to
compose this piece for
the Saint Andrew’s
School Band! I thank
Andrea Wolgin for making
it happen, and I hope
that you enjoy it as much
as I have enjoyed
bringing the piece to
life.–Larry

Colorado Springs, home of

towards the southern end

and is a popular tourist
resort for skiing and
hiking. The Academy plays
an important part in the
life of the area and

in three movements: 1.
The Springs (fanfare) -
“The Springsâ€
is the local residents'
name for the town, and
this first movement
starts with a stirring
fanfare for brass and
percussion, opening with
bold unison horns. The
rest of the brass join in
and woodwind add
decorative figures. After
a short change of style,
the opening material
reappears to close the
movement. 2. Seven Falls
- Seven Falls is a
spectacular waterfall
near to the town which
cascades 181 feet in
seven distinct steps down
a solid cliff of pikes
peak granite. In this
movement, high woodwinds
describe the sparkling
water as it descends to a
popular lookout post near
the bottom of the falls.
3. Pikes Peak - To the
north-west of the town
and reaching an altitude
14,110 feet, Pikes Peak
is the farthest east of
the big peaks in the
Rocky Mountain chain,
which contributed to its
early fame among
explorers and pioneers,
and made it the symbol of
the 1859 Gold Rush to
Colorado with the slogan,
“Pikes Peak or
Bust.†It is the
second-most visited
mountain in the world
behind Japan's Mount
Fuji. This atmospheric
movement describes the
majesty of the mountain
and is based around the
fanfare from the first
movement. Opening on a
solitary bassoon, it is
not long before the main
theme appears under
bubbling woodwinds. The
music reaches a
passionate climax at
which point the opening
fanfare reappears to
bring the whole work to a
close.

Avalo
n–Long Live the

fantasy piece depicting
the Isle of Avalon where
the mystical sword
Excalibur of King Arthur

Notes:Avalon–Long
live the King began its
journey as a commission
in honor of a dear friend

is one of those band
directors that just seems
timeless. He is a
powerhouse with such a
stacked resume that it is
easy to forget that at
the end of the day he
enjoys taking long bike
rides with his lovely
wife and whittling a
piece of wood just as
much as being a band
director. He has touched
so many lives and
inspired so many people
in our field and beyond.
I was humbled, and
honored, when I was
contacted for the
commission. To David, I
hope that you one day
know how much you mean to
so many people, including
myself.About the
piece:The piece is
written with a little
homage to David’s
long tenure at Avalon
Middle school in Pace,
Florida. He was certainly
treated like a king as
the band director and
rightly so. It seemed
only fitting to add a
little medieval fantasy.
Avalon is a mystical
island in the world of
King Arthur where the
great sword Excalibur was
forged.The piece begins
lyrically with a slow
introduction with melodic
material. This melodic
motive is used throughout
with slight variations
depending on the
instrument voicing etc.
Care should be taken at
m. 10 that the Timpani
roll helps to bridge our
transition from an
exposed section to full
tutti. Care should be
taken so that the tempo
change at m. 19 is brisk
and avoids the low brass
turning into stomping.
Accessories like the
China cymbal and
tambourine can become
overpowering. I recommend
having students think of
these effects as

dynamic changes at mm.
27-35 should be subito
similar to orchestral

unwritten crescendos in

The hymn Nun
ruhen alle Wälder (Now
All Forests Rest),
arranged by J.S. Bach
(No. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, from
Cantata BWV 13), is a
guiding light throughout
this four-movement
composition. Pütz
wrote this work as a
musical outcry against
the wilful, profit-driven
destruction of our
environment. When Bach
used the word
“ruhen†(to
rest) over 350 years ago,
it probably had a
different nuance from the
meaning it has today. At
the beginning of the 21st
century - the so-called
age of progress -
“nun ruhen alle
Wälder†should
mean “now all
forests die†.
Massive industrialization
and globalization,
coupled with pure greed,
corruption, political
scandals, an
ever-wideninggap between
the rich and poor, and
other such senseless
human actions, are
pushing our blue planet
closer and closer to the
point of no return. This
work is not intended to
be a ranting accusation.
It should remind us of
the beauty and harmony
that can exist all around
us in nature, if we take
care of it. Pütz
hopes that this will, one
day, help put a greater
emphasis on
humanity’s
survival, and coexistence
with nature rather than
the exploitation
described earlier. All
four texts were created
by Australian poet Graeme
King, whose works were
discovered by Pütz,
by chance on the
internet. Pütz was
especially captivated by
King’s clarity,
and intrigued by the
possibilities of adapting
and melding the strong
rhythmical structure of
King’s writing
with his own musical
language. The four
movements are as follows:
1. Tears of Nature 2.
Grrrevolution 3. Stand
up! 4. Tomorrow The world
première of Four Earth
Songs took place on 7
July 2009 at the 14th
WASBE-Conference in
Cincinnati (USA). This
work is dedicated in
friendship to Jouke
Hoekstra, conductor, and
the Frysk Fanfare Orkest
(the Frisian
Fanfare-Orchestra).
De hymne Nun
ruhen alle Wälder,
gearrangeerd door J.S.
Bach (nr. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, uit cantate
BWV 13), is de leidraad
in deze vierdelige
compositie. Pütz
schreef het werk als een
muzikaal protest tegen de
moedwillige,op winstbejag
gebaseerde vernietiging
van ons milieu. Toen Bach
het woord
‘ruhen’
(rusten) meer dan 350
jaar geleden gebruikte,
lag er waarschijnlijk een
andere nuance in dan
tegenwoordig. Aan het
begin van de 21e eeuw -
dezogenaamde eeuw van de
vooruitgang - zou
‘nun ruhen alle
Wälder’ zelfs
kunnen betekenen:
‘nu sterven alle
bossen’. De
grootschalige
industrialisatie en
globalisering, in
combinatie met pure
hebzucht, corruptie,
politieke schandalen,een
groeiende kloof tussen
arm en rijk, en andere
dwaze menselijke
verrichtingen, brengen
onze blauwe planeet
steeds verder in de

The hymn Nun
ruhen alle Wälder (Now
All Forests Rest),
arranged by J.S. Bach
(No. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, from
Cantata BWV 13), is a
guiding light throughout
this four-movement
composition. Pütz
wrote this work as a
musical outcry against
the wilful, profit-driven
destruction of our
environment. When Bach
used the word
“ruhen†(to
rest) over 350 years ago,
it probably had a
different nuance from the
meaning it has today. At
the beginning of the 21st
century - the so-called
age of progress -
“nun ruhen alle
Wälder†should
mean “now all
forests die†.
Massive industrialization
and globalization,
coupled with pure greed,
corruption, political
scandals, an
ever-wideninggap between
the rich and poor, and
other such senseless
human actions, are
pushing our blue planet
closer and closer to the
point of no return. This
work is not intended to
be a ranting accusation.
It should remind us of
the beauty and harmony
that can exist all around
us in nature, if we take
care of it. Pütz
hopes that this will, one
day, help put a greater
emphasis on
humanity’s
survival, and coexistence
with nature rather than
the exploitation
described earlier. All
four texts were created
by Australian poet Graeme
King, whose works were
discovered by Pütz,
by chance on the
internet. Pütz was
especially captivated by
King’s clarity,
and intrigued by the
possibilities of adapting
and melding the strong
rhythmical structure of
King’s writing
with his own musical
language. The four
movements are as follows:
1. Tears of Nature 2.
Grrrevolution 3. Stand
up! 4. Tomorrow The world
première of Four Earth
Songs took place on 7
July 2009 at the 14th

Seele, deine, uit cantate

schreef het werk als een
muzikaal protest tegen de
moedwillige,op winstbejag
gebaseerde vernietiging
van ons milieu. Toen Bach
het woord
‘ruhen’
(rusten) meer dan 350
jaar geleden gebruikte,
lag er waarschijnlijk een
andere nuance in dan
tegenwoordig. Aan het
begin van de 21e eeuw -
dezogenaamde eeuw van de
vooruitgang - zou
‘nun ruhen alle
Wälder’ zelfs
kunnen betekenen:
‘nu sterven alle

Mercury
Rising was commissioned

Ratzek, to celebrate
their 50th anniversary in
2018. They premiered this
piece in their
half-century concert on
2nd November 2018 in the
Bremerhaven Stadttheater
in Germany. Designed as a
virtuosic and lively
opener, Mercury Rising
opens with nervous energy
and driving, syncopated
rhythms in a blaze of
colour. The horns and
saxophones then introduce
a broad melody, which the
trumpets subsequently
take up after a change of
tonality. A quieter
moment introduces a
distant fanfare on muted
horns over bubbling
semiquavers in the low
clarinets. This is
interrupted by a
passionate tenor melody
but soon returns on the
full brass section,
accompanied by echoes of
the opening woodwind
figuration, and is
extended to bring the
piece to a triumphant
close.

This work
presents the listener
with the wondrous
grandeur of one of the
great mountain ranges in
America, the Sierra
Nevada. When the music
begins, the listener is
greeted with the
awakening of an early
morning in the Sierras,
complete with a
mysterious, foggy mist
that creates a feeling of
complete stillness and
peace with the world. As
the mist slowly
dissipates, hidden forms
begin to make their
presence known and
gradually become a
tremendous panorama of
grand snow-covered
mountain peaks. Grandiose
and immense in all their
beauty and glory, they
stand before you with a
sense of undeniable
power, extending in all
directions as far as the
eye can see. Upon closer
inspection one can
imagine the circling
golden eagles, the regal
elk and royal stags, all
lazily wandering the
hills and canyons of
conifers that stand tall,
reaching for the passing
clouds in hopes of
gaining a few rays of
life-giving sunshine and
moisture. Look in another
direction and you will
see the immense rolling
hillsides of colourful
wild flowers, fluttering
butterflies, birds
darting about, sparkling
waterfalls and all
critters existing in
harmony. After the day's
activities the sun begins
to slip below the
horizon, the mist
returns, and all living
things prepare for
another still night of
sleep, serenity and the
warmth of their secure
bedding places.

The piece
reflects the composer's
fascination with the
origins of the universe
and deep space in
general. The title comes
from a theory, formulated
by Pythagoras, that the
cosmos was ruled by the
same laws he had
discovered that govern
the ratios of note
frequencies of the
musical scale.
(‘Harmonia’
in Ancient Greek, which
means scale or tuning
rather than harmony -
Greek music was
monophonic). He also
believed that these
ratios corresponded to
the distances of the six
known planets from the
sun and that the planets
each produced a musical
note which combined to
weave a continuous
heavenly melody (which,
unfortunately, we humans
cannot hear). In this
work, these six notesform
the basis of the sections
MUSIC OF THE SPHERES and
HARMONIA. The pieces
opens with a horn solo
called t = 0, a name
given by some scientists
to the moment of the Big
Bang when time and space
were created, and this is
followed by a depiction
of the BIG BANG itself,
as the entire universe
bursts out from a single
point. A slower section
follows called THE LONELY
PLANET which is a
meditation on the
incredible and unlikely
set of circumstances
which led to the creation
of the Earth as a planet
that can support life,
and the constant search
for other civilisations
elsewhere in the
universe. ASTEROIDS AND
SHOOTING STARS depicts
both the benign and
dangerous objects that
are flying through space
and which constantly
threaten our planet, and
the piece ends with THE
UNKNOWN, leaving in
question whether our
continually expanding
exploration of the
universe will eventually
lead to enlightenment or
destruction.
Dit
werk weerspiegelt de
fascinatie van de
componist voor het
heelal. Het begint met
een hoornsolo met de naam
t = 0, waarmee
sommige wetenschappers de
oerknal aanduiden. Dan
volgt een weergave van de
oerknal zelf. Het
volgendegedeelte, The
Lonely Planet, is een
meditatie over het
ongelooflijke samenspel
van omstandigheden dat
leidde tot het ontstaan
van de Aarde.
Asteroids and Shooting
Stars beschrijft
objecten in de ruimte.
Het werkeindigt met
The Unknown,
waarmee we in het
ongewisse blijven over de
gevolgen van onze verdere
verkenning van het
universum. In 2005 won
Philip Sparke met
Music of the
Spheres de National
Band Association/William
D.Revelli Memorial Band
Composition
Contest.
Dieses
Werk handelt vom Weltall
und unserem Platz im
Universum, auf dem
Weltbild von Pythagoras
basierend. Am einfachsten
lässt sich diese
außergewöhnliche
Komposition wohl als
Filmmusik ähnliches
Stück beschreiben ?
Musik zu einem
Science-Fiction-Film
eines Ripley Scott oder
Steven Spielberg oder
auch Musik, wie sie ein
John Williams oder Danny
Elfman schreiben
würde: absolut
stimmungsvoll, brillant
instrumentiert mit
Klangfarben, Strukturen,
Effekten und Timbres,
gemischt mit
fließenden
musikalischen Linien, die
die Substanz des Themas
auf den Punkt treffen.
Dieses atemberaubende
neue Stück hebt Ihr
Blasorchester auf ein
höheres Niveau, sowohl
im technischen als
auchmusikalischen Sinn.
Music of the
Spheres evidenza il
fascino che le origini
dell’universo
esercitano su Philip
Sparke. Il titolo
proviene da una teoria
del matematico greco
Pitagora, secondo la
quale il cosmo è retto
dalle stesse leggi che
governano i rapporti di
frequenza tra le note
della scala musicale.
Questa composizione
inizia con un assolo di
corno chiamato t = 0,
nozione che definisce il
momento del big-bang.
The Lonely Planet
(Il pianeta solitario)
è una meditazione
sulle circostanze che
hanno portato alla
creazione della terra.
Asteroids and Shooting
Stars (Asteroidi e
Stelle cadenti) descrive
i molteplici oggetti che
si muovono nello spazio e
che rappresentano
unrischio per il nostro
pianeta. Le battute
finali portano verso
l’ignoto (The
Unknown) sollevando
una domanda la cui
risposta resta in
sospeso: la nostra
continua avanzata
nell’esplorazione
dell’Universo
porter un giorno alla
scoperta o alla
distruzione?

Song of
Friendship was
commissioned by the
Concert Band of Jumonji
University, Saitama,
Japan and their
conductor, Yutaka
Nishida. The commission
marked the 50th year of
Yutaka Nishida’s
involvement with bands as
a player, conductor and
radio presenter. The
ceremonial Song of
Friendship opens with
an extended fanfare,
largely featuring the
brass section. This leads
to the main theme, which
develops slowly until it
is played by the full
band. A change of key
signals a contrasting
central section
containing a quiet
woodwind chorale, which
grows until the return of
the triumphant sounding
main theme. Elements of
the opening fanfare then
close the
work.
Song of
Friendship werd
geschreven voor het
harmonieorkest van de
Jumonji University in
Saitama, Japan, en
dirigent Yutaka Nishida.
De opdracht markeerde
tevens het vijftigste
jaar dat Yutaka Nishida
al actief was met
blaasorkesten als
muzikant, dirigent en
radiopresentator. Song
of Friendship opent
met een uitgebreide
fanfare waarin vooral de
kopersectie aan het woord
is. Dit gedeelte leidt
naar het hoofdthema, dat
geleidelijk verder wordt
uitgewerkt tot het door
het volledige orkest
wordt gespeeld. Een
modulatie kondigt een
contrasterend middendeel
aan, met een rustig
koraal in het hout dat
zich verder ontwikkelt
tot aan de terugkeer van
hettriomfantelijk
klinkende hoofdthema. Het
werk wordt afgesloten met
elementen uit de
openingsfanfare.
Song of
Friendship wurde vom

Dirigenten Yutaka Nishida
in Auftrag gegeben. Das
Auftragswerk steht auch
für Yutaka Nishidas
über 50-jähriges
Engagement im Bereich der
Blasmusik als Musiker,
Dirigent und
Radiomoderator. Das
feierliche Stück
Song of Friendship
beginnt mit einer
ausgedehnten Fanfare, die
vor allem die
Blechbläser
herausstellt. Diese
führt zum Hauptthema,
das sich langsam
entwickelt, bis es
schließlich vom
gesamten Orchester
gespielt wird. Ein
Tonartwechsel leitet den
gegensätzlichen
Hauptteil mit einem
ruhigen Choral in den
Holzbläsern ein, der
sich bis zur Wiederkehr
destriumphierenden
Hauptthemas langsam
weiterentwickelt. Das
Werk endet mit Elementen
aus der
Eröffnungsfanfare.
Il celebrativo
Song of Friendship
si apre con un esteso
tema di fanfara che
presenta ampiamente la
sezione degli ottoni.
Questo conduce al tema
principale, che si
sviluppa gradualmente
fino
all’esecuzione da
parte di tutta la banda.
Un cambio di tonalit
anticipa una contrastante
sezione centrale che
contiene un calmo corale
di legni che cresce fino
al ritorno trionfante del
tema principale. Gli
elementi musicali della
fanfara d’apertura
concludono
l’opera.

called Angels From the

it often known as
Angels We Have Heard
