This
work is not only about
the flow of the Doubs,
Ranceuse, and Roide
rivers that converge at
Pont-de-Roide but also
about the flow of life
and history of this
French town. The
composition begins
festively and, after the
tempo picks up, the music
smoothly and rhythmically
depicts the happiness and
enthusiasm of the
inhabitants. The
ever-flowing waters of
the rivers introduce the
slow, melodic middle
section, which suddenly
turns into traditional
march music. After a
return to sounds of
happiness and enthusiasm,
the work closes
majestically.

Nordanvind
is a tour de force
symphonic rhapsody that
is built on three
Scandinavian folk songs.
Composer Carl Strommen
has composed these
Viking-influenced
melodies into a concert
setting that brings out
all of the history of the
Scandinavian people. The
piece is at times bold
and aggressive, at other
times beautiful. Carl
employs all of the
instrumental colors of
the concert band to
create a new work for
more advanced
ensembles. Modern
Scandinavians are
descendants of the
Vikings, an adventuresome
people who were known for
their love of the sea,
their naval prowess, and
as fierce fighters . The
Scandinavian Vikings were
warriors from Denmark,
Norway, and Sweden who
traded, raided and
settled in various parts
of Europe, Russia, the
North Atlantic islands,
and the northeastern
coast of North America
.Starting around 1850,
over one million Swedes
left their homeland for
the United States in
search of religious
freedom and open farm
land . Augustana College
was founded in 1860 by
graduates of Swedish
universities and is
located on the
Mississippi River in Rock
Island, Illinois . Home
of the
“Vikings,â€
Augustana College is the
oldest Swedish- American
institution of higher
learning in the United
States . This powerful
and lively piece takes
inspiration from Swedish
history and from Swedish
folk songs and hymns
.Havsdrake (Dragon of the
Sea)The Nordanvind or
“North Windâ€
blows a cold wind during
a journey of a group of
courageous Viking rowers
. The
“Dragon-shipâ€
or long ships designed
for raiding and war was a
sophisticated, fast ship
able to navigate in very
shallow water . To
musically portray these
magnificent seafaring
vessels, the director is
encouraged to use an
Ocean Drum (or a rain
stick) during the
introduction . Wind
players may consider
blowing air through their
instruments to suggest
the North wind . Adding
men’s voices to
accompany the haunting
low brass and percussive
“rowerâ€
sounds can be helpful in
creating the dark and
ominous portrayal of
Viking adventurers
.Slangpolska efter Byss -
KalleIn Sweden, a
“polska†is a
partner dance where the
dancers spin each other
(släng in Swedish
“to sling or
tossâ€) .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is attributed to
Byss-Kalle, who was a
notable Swedish folk
musician, specifically a
nyckelharpa player .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is a traditional
“polskaâ€
dance song most often
played on the Nyckelharpa
or keyed fiddle and is
commonly heard in pubs
and at festive events
throughout Sweden .
Approximately 10,000
nyckelharpa players live
in Sweden today, and the
Swedish and the American
Nyckelharpa Associations
are dedicated to this
Swedish National
instrument . The director
is encouraged to share
video and audio examples
of the nyckelharpa
playing the original
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle .Tryggare Kan Ingen
Vara (Children of the
Heavenly Father)Tryggare
Kan Ingen Vara Is a
traditional Swedish
melody, possibly of
German roots, and was
believed to be arranged
as a hymn by the Swedish
hymn writer, Karolina
Wilhelmina Sandell-Berg
(1832–1903) . As a
daughter of a Swedish
Lutheran minister, she
began writing poems as a
teenager and is said to
have written over 1,700
different texts . There
are two different
accounts as to the
inspiration for this hymn
. The first story is that
Lina (as she was called)
wrote the hymn to honor
her father and to say
thank you to him for
raising her and
protecting her . A second
belief is of her
witnessing the tragic
death of her father . She
and her father were on a
boat, when a wave threw
her father overboard . It
was said that the
profound effect of
watching her father drown
is what caused Lina to
write the text to this
hymn . Although this is a
treasured song to people
of Swedish descent
everywhere, it speaks to
all people about a father
tending and nourishing
his children, and
protecting them from evil
.SPS71FThe Augustana
College Concert

Rainb
ow in the Clouds is
based on an old
traditional spiritual,
possibly an
African-American song
from the 19th century,
entitled God Put a
Rainbow in the
Clouds. Composer
Carol Brittin Chambers
was inspired by poetic
Maya Angelou to create of
setting of this beautiful
song. It is lush and
beautiful throughout and
will highlight the
musicianship of your
students. This would
serve as a welcome change
of pace piece on your
program for concert or
contest. Rainbow in
the Clouds was
commissioned by the
Pflugerville Middle
School Wind Ensemble in
Pflugerville, Texas,
directed by Shauna
Satrom. The piece
premiered in May 2017, in
memory and celebration of
Luis Ham, who was an
Assistant Principal at
Pflugerville Middle
School.This piece is
based on an old
traditional spiritual,
possibly an
African-American song
from the nineteenth
century, entitled God Put
a Rainbow in the Clouds.
The first time I heard
reference to this song
was in a Maya Angelou
video, in which she sings
a portion of it:
“When it looked
like the sun
wouldn’t shine
anymore, Oh, God put a
rainbow in the
clouds.†In the
video, Dr. Angelou honors
those who have
demonstrated kindness to
her in the past, and she
suggests that we all try
to be a blessing to
others. The Pflugerville
community believed that
Mr. Ham, with his
positive outlook, was
definitely a
“rainbow in the
clouds†for other
people.The piece begins
with a full ensemble
introduction, followed by
a woodwind treatment of
the first verse with a
fairly reserved tempo and
straight eighth-note
rhythm. When brass pick
up the melody on the
second phrase, we start
to hear the song more
like the original
spiritual, with
dotted-eighth, sixteenth
rhythms. The middle
section of the piece at
m. 22 begins to move at a
slightly quicker tempo,
and the mood becomes
lighter. This section
becomes a
call-and-response between
a euphonium solo and
upper woodwinds. The
final section of the
piece involves everyone
playing together joyously
and full, eventually
winding down with two
more solo statements in
flute and euphonium.Note
to the Conductor:Use this
piece to introduce or
reinforce the following
musical concepts:Lyrical,
expressive playing varied
stylesSolo
responsibilitiesKey

Factory
Child is a protest
song against child
sweatshops. The piece
depicts the factory life
of children laboring many
hours a day and
manufacturing the shoes
and clothes that end up
in American retail
stores. Young performers
will find this
thought-provoking piece
an excellent way to use
their musical voice to
affect change. Factory
Child is a protest song
against child sweatshops.
Written in memory of Mrs.
Peterson, who loved
children dearly, the
piece depicts the factory
life of children laboring
16+ hours a day,
manufacturing the shoes
and clothes that end up
in American retail
stores.Factory Child
begins with factory
sounds and an oppressive,
repetitive pattern that
supports the melody
carried by the upper
voices. The second
section is composed of
wistful, dream-like
sounds and melodies that
have traces of
children’s songs
that remind us that these
children forced into
labor would love to have
the opportunity to play,
attend school, and dream,
but cannot and
realistically have little
hope for a life we
consider normal. The
middle section gives way
to more sounds from the
factory. The climax is a
raucous circus-like waltz
using themes from both
sections.The percussion
parts can be covered by
six players. Some players
will need to cover two
parts. Use someone from
the wind section if you
do not have six, as some
of the parts, although
important, are not very
difficult. The second
clarinet never goes over
the break and the bass
line is usually doubled
in the euphonium as well
as in the low reeds.This
piece is an excellent way
for young performers to
use their musical voice
to affect change. It is a
great discussion starter
for researching where our
apparel comes from and
why to stay away from
some brands. It can also
make students aware of
the fantastic opportunity
they have to attend
school that children in
other parts of the world
do not. Young students
will find this piece very
thought provoking.Ed

The hymn Nun
ruhen alle Walder (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 Walder 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

De hymne Nun
ruhen alle Walder,
gearrangeerd door J.S.
Bach (nr. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, uit cantate
BWV 13), is de leidraad
in deze vierdelige
compositie. Putz 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 Walder' 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
problemen, tot er
misschien geen weg terug
meer is. Dit werk is niet
bedoeld als een
beschuldigendetirade. Het
moet ons wijzen op de
schoonheid en harmonie
die in de natuur om ons
heen kan bestaan, als we
er goed voor zorgen. Putz
hoopt dat er op een dag
meer nadruk gelegd zal
worden op het overleven
van de mensheid
invreedzame co-existentie
met de natuur, zonder de
eerdergenoemde
uitbuiting. Alle vier de
teksten zijn geschreven
door de Australische
dichter Graeme King,
wiens werk Putz bij
toeval tegenkwam op het
internet. Hij werd
getroffendoor Kings
helderheid en raakte
geintrigeerd door de
mogelijkheid de sterke
ritmische structuur van
Kings teksten om te

Der
Choral Nun ruhen alle
Walder, hier in einer
Bearbeitung von J.S. Bach
(Nr. 6 So sei nun, Seele,
deine aus der Kantate BWV
13), zieht sich wie ein
roter Faden durch diese
viersatzige Komposition,
die als musikalischer
Aufschrei (Anfang!) gegen
die mutwillige,
profitgesteuerte
Zerstorung unserer Umwelt
gedacht ist. Sicher hatte
das Wort ruhen vor
über 350 Jahren,
als der Liedtext
entstand, eine andere
Bedeutung als heute. Zu
Beginn des 21.
Jahrhunderts, im
sogenannten Zeitalter des
Fortschritts,
müsste es leider
wohl eher heissen: Nun
sterben alle Walder...
Massive
Industrialisierung,
Globalisierung, aber auch
Profitgier, Korruption,

Unfahigkeit,krasse
Unterschiede zwischen arm

schlussendlich die
Uneinsichtigkeit des
einzelnen Menschen haben
dazu geführt, dass
der Blaue Planet heute
kurz vor dem Kollaps

jedoch nicht nur
anklagen, es soll auch
die verbliebenen
Schonheiten unserer Natur
aufzeigen, in der
Hoffnung, dass es einmal
gelingen wird, die
Rettung der Natur und den
Schutz der Umwelt
über die oben
genannten Interessen zu
stellen. Alle vier Texte
stammen aus der Feder des
australischen Dichters
Graeme King, dessen Werk
der Komponist durch einen

Besonders inspirierend
war die Direktheit von
Graemes Aussagen, aber

Since
the beginning of the
Protestant Reformation,
hymns have been the tie
binding the hearts and
spirits of Christians
together. With their
beautiful melodies and
poetically penned words,
hymns are the universal
language of Christian
worship, the bond that
draws believers together
from all walks of life
and across the world.
With texts of faith and
inspiration, hymns speak
to present time with
words of assurance of
hope, and help direct us
toward the future in
glory. Next to the Bible,
they have endured as the
timeless voice of the
Christian faith, teaching
and inspiring believers
throughout generations.
In this collection of
“favoritesâ€
we offer listeners a
compilation of the
genre’s most
beloved and inspirational
hymns of faith. Arranged
by some of today’s
most distinguished church
music icons, the hymns in
this collection will
thrill and comfort the
faithful listener.
Drawing upon the words
and melodies of some of
the world’s
greatest hymn writers,
including Fanny Crosby,
Charles Wesley, and
Martin Luther, the
arrangers in this
collection maintain each
work’s original
integrity while
beautifully transporting
each hymn into the realm
of today’s modern
worship world. From the
stirring strains of
“Amazing
Grace†to the
majestic power of
“Holy, Holy,
Holy,†this
collection will inspire
Christian worshipers.

The Golden
Age is a programmatic
composition in four
movements. I
Overture For the
Netherlands, the
seventeenth century was a
period of great
flourishing in the fields
of economy, culture and
politics; thus it is
called the Golden Age.
Overseas trade boomed,
and the Dutch East India
Company (known as the VOC
by the Dutch) was founded
and expanded to become a
powerful -and, at the
time - modern enterprise.
II ¡Adiós
españoles!(Farewel
l, Spaniards!) In 1567,
the Spanish army invaded,
led by the Duke of Alva.
There was a fierce
resistance against the
Spanish tyranny; toward
the end of the sixteenth
century, the Dutch
proclaimed theRepublic.
However, the Spanish
continued the war. Only
with the Treaty of
Münster in 1648 did
the Dutch get their much
sought-after
independence. This was
also the end of the
Eighty Years’ War.
III Rembrandt’s
Night WatchThe field
of culture, particularly
literature, painting,
sculpture, architecture,
the art of printing, and
cartography developed
fast. It was in the
Golden Age that the
celebrated painter
Rembrandt van Rijn
created his famous Night
Watch. IV The
Admiral Overseas
trade entailed the
colonization of large
areas in Asia, from where
precious products that
yielded lots of money
were brought in.
Surrounding countries
were also involved in
such practices.
Colonizers poached on
each other’s
territories in the
literal and figurative
sense - in this context
the Anglo-Dutch Sea Wars
are legendary. The fourth
movement starts with the
English patriotic song
Rule Britannia, after
which the Dutch Admiral
Michiel de Ruyter makes
the English change their
tune; one can even hear
the roaring of cannons.
When the smoke of battle
has cleared, a small
fragment of a Dutch song
about Michiel de Ruyter
appears, followed by a
fitting closing.

Glitter and

Bling and fast cars
images like these will
cross our minds when we
think of the movie world.
However, reality proves
to be different : as a
rule, a tremendous amount
of work will have been
done on the set before a
film is ready to be shown
on the big screen. A
visit to an actual movie
set inspired John Emerson
Blackstone to write a
composition bearing the
same name. He had both
seen a number of
characteristic attributes
and heard the typical
phrases used in film
making, and he
incorporated them into
‘On the Movie Set’
.
In the first
part, ‘The
Clapboard’, a
‘director’s
assistant’ is supposed
to shout “Quieton the
set’” and
“Action!”, as is done
before a real scene is
shot. Subsequently, in
order to create the right
atmosphere, the clacking
of a ‘Clapboard’
should be heard.
During a romantic scene
we should be transported
to another world by means
of sweet sounds in the
background, so romantic
music is of course heard
in the next part, ‘Love
Scene’. At the end
of a long working day
‘It’s a wrap’ is
called on the set to
inform everyone that the
filming on that day is
completed.
Now
there is only one more
thing left to dream of :
an Oscar.....
Perf. Note: The use
of the right props will
add to the performance
and appreciation of ‘On

carpet and a glamorous
reception should give
your audience the feeling
they are attending a real
‘opening night’!
‘Glamour’ en

doorgaans hard gewerkt
wordentijdens het draaien

inspireerde John Emerson
Blackstone tot het
schrijven van ‘On the

aantal zeer
karakteristieke
attributen en hoorde
kreten die hij
verwerktein deze

het eerste deel: ‘The

roept, voordat er een
take opgenomen wordt.
Daarnamoet natuurlijk met
een ‘Clapboard’
geklakt worden. Bij
een ‘Love Scene’
hoort uiteraard
sfeerverhogende
romantische muziek. Want
zwijmelen bij een film
gaat nu eenmaal niet
zonder zoete klanken.
Aan het einde van
eenlange dag klinkt
altijd ‘It’s a

het laatste shot van de

Nu maar hopen dat er een

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:

De hymne Nun

gearrangeerd door J.S.
Bach (nr. 6, So sei nun,

van ons milieu. Toen Bach
het woord

Diamond
Concerto was
commissioned by
Musikverein Morschied
from Germany - Dr. Eric
Grandjean, conductor -
for a special concert
featuring Steven Mead as
guest soloist. Together
they gave the world
premiere on 28th April
2012 in the town theatre
of Idar-Oberstein.The
commission is a highlight
in the 30-year friendship
between composer and
soloist, which has
included many mutual CD
projects and concerts
and, now, a concerto.
Sparke had Steven Mead's
special euphonium sound
in his head throughout
the composition process
and made free use of the
variety of styles which
the world-renowned
virtuoso has made his own
during his highly
successful solo
career.The village
ofMorschied lies to the
west of Frankfurt am Main
in the area known as the
German Road of Precious
Stones, which is famous
for its thriving gem
industry. Because of this
it was decided to give
the commission a local
connection by choosing
the title, Diamond
Concerto. Each of the
three movements is named
after a famous diamond:1
EARTH STARis rather stern
in mood, opening with a
free fantasy for the
soloist over a static
chord from the band. This
leads to an Allegro
Moderato in minor mode
where small motives are
gradually repeated and
developed by both band
and soloist.2 OCEAN
DREAMuses a varied quote
from the composer's
Music for Battle
Creek, including a
melting slow melody that
was originally written
with Steven Mead in
mind.3 BLUE HEARTwas
written, at Steven Mead's
suggestion, in bebop
style and takes the form
of a jazz waltz. The
quasi-improvisatory
central section features
a call-and-response
passage for the soloist
and upper
woodwinds.Soloist:
Difficulty 6Diamond
Concerto is available
for euphonium and piano
(AMP 374-401) as well as
for euphonium and brass
band (AMP 354-030).
Diamond
Concerto is
geschreven in opdracht
van de Duitse Musikverein
Morschied - met dirigent
Eric Grandjean - voor een
speciaal concert met
Steven Mead als
gastsolist. De
wereldpremiere vond
plaats op 28 april 2012
in het Stadttheater van
Idar-Oberstein.De
opdracht vormt een
hoogtepunt in de dertig
jaar lange vriendschap
van de componist en de
solist - waarin ze aan
vele gezamenlijke
cd-projecten en concerten
werkten. En nu is er dan
dit concert. Sparke heeft
het gecomponeerd met
Steven Meads geheel eigen
euphoniumklank in het
achterhoofd. Hij paste
daarbij de diverse
stijlen toe die de
wereldberoemde virtuoos
zich heeft eigen gemaakt
tijdens zijn
succesvollesolocarriere.H
et plaatsje Morschied
ligt ten westen van
Frankfurt am Main, in het
gebied dat bekendstaat
als de Deutsche
Edelsteinstrasse. Het is
beroemd vanwege zijn
bloeiende
edelstenenindustrie. Om
het werk een lokaal
tintje te geven is een
toepasselijke titel
gekozen: Diamond
Concerto. Elk van de
drie delen is genoemd
naar een beroemde
edelsteen:1 EARTH STARDit
deel is tamelijk sober
van sfeer. Het opent met
een vrije fantasie van de
solist over een statisch
akkoord in het orkest.
Dan volgt een allegro
moderato in mineur, met
kleine motieven die
geleidelijk worden
herhaald en uitgewerkt
door zowel het orkest als
de solist.2 OCEAN
DREAMHierin wordt een
citaat van Sparke's werk
Music for Battle
Creek naar voren
gebracht, met een
vloeiende, langzame
melodie die van oorsprong
werd geschreven met het
spel van Steven Mead in
gedachten.3 BLUE
HEARTNaar een suggestie
van Steven Mead zelf is
dit deel geschreven in
bebopstijl. Het neemt de
vorm aan van een
jazzwals. De
quasi-improvisatorische
centrale passage omvat
een vraag-en-antwoordspel
voor de solist en het
hoge hout.Solo:

White
Light was
commissioned by Fumiko
Teramoto, oboist with the
Musashino Grand Concert
Band in Tokyo, Japan. The
request was for a
moderately slow piece of
intermediate difficulty
that included the work
“white” (Ms.
Teramoto's lucky color)
in the title. The
composer used this
suggestion to write a
piece that was both
bright and light in terms
of harmony, color and
orchestration, with much
use of simple major and
minor chords and an
emphasis on the pure,
transparent timbres of
the upper woodwinds of
the band; he was also
keen to capture the
essence and history of
the oboe as a solo
instrument. The piece is
pastoral in character and
often almost baroque in
style. It opens with a
chorale-like passage on
flutes and clarinets; the
soloist enters with a
recitative over trilling
clarinets. The main theme
is then introduced,
accompanied by the
woodwinds. After a short
bridge passage, a change
of key heralds a second
theme by the soloist,
with gentle brass
punctuations. This builds
to a climax, ending on a
high trill from the
soloist. After short
passage over a timpani
roll, the band recalls
the main theme, taken up
once again by the
soloist. This leads to a
short cadenza before the
closing bars bring the
work peacefully to a
close.

Composed
in 1886 by the march king
himself, this familiar
bold march is sure to
please. Retaining Sousa's
original intent, the
theme
uncharacteristically
incorporates light
staccato notes in
addition to full value
quarter notes. A great
teaching and performance
choice! (2:00).
