Variazio ni in Blue besteht aus einer Reihe von Variationen, die auf melodischen Blueselementen wie die blue notes beruhen. Einer ornamentalen Variation im klassischen Stil schliesst sich eine Blues-Variation an. Dann folgt eine temporeiche, osteuropaische Variation. Das Werk ist dadurch sehr vielschichtig und abwechslungsreich und passt hervorragend in den konzertanten Teil eines Konzertes. Auch als Wertungsspielstuck ist es sehr gut geeignet.

Variazioni in Blue est base sur une serie de variations dans laquelle des elements du blues (comme les fameuses blue notes) servent de fil conducteur. Apres une introduction majestueuse qui revele partiellement le theme central, on entend une premiere variation ornementale dans un style classique. Elle est suivie par une deuxieme variation dans le style du blues et par une troisieme, plus rapide, dont le caractere provient des musiques traditionnelles d'Europe de l'Est. L'Andante espressivo contient de subtils changements harmoniques. Ce mouvement evolue en une reprise de la variation folklorique precedente dont l'intensite est augmentee par le passage enMajeur qui conduit vers le finale.

Composed by Edvard Grieg in 1875, music from Peer Gynt was originally incidental music for Henrik Ibsen's five-act play. The beautiful Solveig's Song is from the second orchestral suite later extracted by Grieg. Johnnie's tender setting opens with a lyric theme scored for the trumpet section. A brief andante section features the woodwinds before returning to the opening melody this time richly scored for full band. A beautiful work for teaching lyric style playing.

UPC: 073999715651. 9.0x12.0x0.04 inches.

MusicWorks – Grade 4 First published in 1989, this work from the late Calvin Custer epitomizes his command of orchestration and understanding of musical pacing. The familiar folk melody is stated first by a solo flute then followed by a remarkable series of variations starting with a brass choir accompanied by woodwind flourishes. An Andante variation features the woodwind choir accompanying solos by baritone and oboe, and this leads to a striking fugue variation and bold finish. Truly symphonic band writing at its best. (4:45).

Written for accomplished soloist Brian Bowman, principal Euphonium in the US Air Force Band, as a commissioned work under conductor Col. Arnald Gabriel, this composition is for virtuoso soloist and concert band. It calls for expressive phrasing especially through the Lento and Andante sections. Smith incorporates mixed meters and his signature 7/8 bar to create a dance-like lift. A concert showpiece that contains a challenging cadenza for the soloist.

The original of this arrangement continues to be one of Claude T. Smith’s most performed works. The opening theme sparkles with rhythmic energy and harmonic structure that never grow old. The Andante section is a beautiful contrast to the main theme occurring in neighboring sections. This flexible arrangement allows ensembles to perform the work with as few as thirteen musicians providing accessibility and flexibility for numerous instrumentation needs, while still allowing a full ensemble sound. *The posted recording is based on the full band scoring but aligns with the suggested preferences for either woodwinds/strings or brass suggested in the score.

Filled with rhythmic and harmonic interest as well as memorable melodies, MISSOURI RIVER FESTIVAL well displays David Moore's artistic exploration of thematic material. Moods of the river are artistically represented in the interplay between Maestoso, Allegro spiritoso and Andante mysterioso sections. An added practical advantage can be found in the brass parts, which are dynamic and fun to play while including plenty of ?resting time? carefully interspersed throughout - so you can use MISSOURI RIVER FESTIVAL at virtually any time in your program without fear of overtaxing the brass.
