By Brian Balmages. Intermediate Wind Band/Ensemble. FJH Developing Band. So what would it be like if someone could actually grab on to one of these comets and take a ride through the solar system? Comet Ride seeks to convey that very feeling. The opening bold section describes the sighting of the comet and builds as it gets closer and closer. The piece then takes off, launching a wild comet ride filled with excitement and energy. Eventually, the sheer beauty and awe of outer space becomes the focus of the work before the piece builds once again into a final roller coaster of excitement. Score for this title: B1291S. Extra part for this title: B1291P. Concert Band. Level: 1.5. Score and Set of Parts. Published by The FJH Music Company Inc.

This swing chart for proficient groups showcases a valuable, yet often overlooked member of the big band, the bass trombone. The melody is scored below the bass clef staff and into the pedal register, and is offset by dramatic ensemble punctuations before launching the soloist into a section of written or ad lib solos. The shout chorus incorporates dynamic exchanges between the ensemble and soloist, all leading to the low-note finale. Duration 4:00.

Journey back to ancient Rome in this powerful string orchestra work depicting the strength and reach of the Roman armies through the eyes of a weathered centurion (a centurion is the equivalent of an Army captain). The work begins with a full statement of the Centurion motif in the high strings which should be played with power and strength while in the rhythmic marching element (depicting the Roman Army) in the low strings propels us forward. The lyrical sections at measures 13 through 32 in the viola and cello sections should be expressive and maintain that powerful sound first established in the violins at the beginning of the piece. From mm. 32-42, a  torrent of triplets drives toward a grander gesture of the Centurion motif in the violins and viola sections while the low strings maintain momentum and rhythmic precision. The piece continues to a more solemn restatement of the motif, a section which requires a great deal of expressive playing and vibrato, as the centurion reminisces about his accomplishments, before launching into one last battle from m. 59 to the end.

String Quartet (2vl,va,vc)

SKU: BR.PB-5622-07

Urtext. Composed by Joachim Raff. Edited by Severin Kolb and Stefan Konig. Chamber music; Softbound. Partitur-Bibliothek (Score Library).

With his first String Quartet in D minor, op. 77, composed in 1855, the native Swiss composer Joachim Raff (1822-1882) bid a brilliant farewell to Weimar.

Romantic period. Study Score. 176 pages. Breitkopf and Haertel #PB 5622-07. Published by Breitkopf and Haertel (BR.PB-5622-07).

ISBN 9790004215197. 6.5 x 9 inches.

With his first String Quartet in D minor, op. 77, composed in 1855, the native Swiss composer Joachim Raff bid a brilliant farewell to Weimar. He had been there as Franz Liszt's assistant since 1850 and had made a name for himself in the city's art scene - now he embarked on new paths. He composed his second Quartet in A major, op. 90, already in 1857 in Wiesbaden, the spa town that was to become his home for 21 years. The two quartets are unequivocal works: orchestrally-conceived, full of energetic vigor, and at times uncompromisingly modern. They confidently continue the Beethoven tradition and attest at the same time to Raff's intensive confrontation with Richard Wagner's music during the Weimar years. In his chamber music, the composer wanted to achieve progress in an inherently historical way and to ground the individual substance in existing forms, as he told the Viennese violinist Josef Hellmesberger, who launched opus 77. The quartets, first published in 1860/62, found illustrious interpreters, among them, the Muller brothers' renowned ensemble, to which opus 90 was also dedicated, and Joseph Joachim.In collaboration with the Joachim-Raff-Archiv Lachen (CH)

Some eighteen years elapsed between Raff's first counted String Quartet op. 77 and his Quartets Nos. 6-8 op. 192, combined as one work. As such, Raff parted with the weighty single opus in quartet composition - without, however, sacrificing musical quality.

UPC: 785147995708. English. Text by Kazuaki Tanahashi.

In my opinion our world is currently in great need of reestablishing strong connections one to another, be it with family and friends, neighbors and strangers, nations and nations, or with those of different cultures and religions. In his important book, I and Thou, philosopher-theologian Martin Buber says that the most meaningful life is centered on relationship. As a musician, I felt compelled to express the I-THOU thesis through the human voice. In searching for the right words to express this sentiment, I was fortunate to find Kazuaki Tanahashi’s eloquent poem, “Encounter.” Mr. Tanahashi is a poet, Zen artist, scholar and peace activist.  This combined-voices version has been adapted from an SATB scoring that features prominently in the original song cycle, I-THOU, written for vocal quartet, commissioned and premiered in 2018 by Fourth Coast Ensemble in Chicago. —Wayland Rogers About the Series: Doreen Rao, 2019 Robert Shaw Award recipient, launches her culturally inclusive choral series, Global Encounters for Young Voices, featuring accessible treble- and mixed-voice works for developing choirs.
