Par COURT DOUGLAS. Watching a storm approaching is always an exciting experience. The power and majesty of the wind and rain as they surge through the trees and sweep across the land is an amazing sight and a reminder of the power of nature. An eerie calm happens after the storm that causes us to reflect on the nobility and power of this event. The music seeks to portray both the power and the nobility of 'The Rising Storm'. / Niveau : 2 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band

Edward Fairlie's Storm and Urge is a significant work for wind band and portrays a journey of emotional turbulence. The title comes from the German 'Sturm und Drang,? a literary and musical movement of the late 1700s which focused on extremes of emotion. Opening with a simple and reflective theme, we are then taken through a range of emotional settings from uncertainty to resistance, and then calm resolve and self-knowledge. With a variety of textures and vivid imagery, this is a masterful work for the contemporary ensemble. / Ensemble A Vent Partition Et Parties

for large orchestra divided into three groups. Par CZERNOWIN CHAYA. The Quiet originated from watching a snowstorm from my window at night as the flakes danced in the weak light of the lamp outside. The desire to make the storm audible was the starting point for a journey which morphed into many different other strange, close, and distant storms. These storms constantly evolved from natural occurances into far away atmospheres surrounding human activity, before returning to natural realms. (Chaya Czernowin)/ Répertoire / Orchestre

Arr. Lorenzo Bocci. Par MC COY VAN. In 1975, a new dance form took the Latin-Amercan areas of the Bronx by storm. After observing the frenzy of the dancers in that area, Van McCoy composed a melody that successfully took its basis from Latin and R&B. The Hustle was an instant success and made a large contribution to the evolution of disco music in the 1970's. Your band will not be able to resist the fantastic groove and drive of this evergreen disco hit, fantastically arranged by Lorenzo Bocci. / Niveau : 3 / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par HESS NIGEL. Commissioned in 1994 by the Royal Air Force, 'Scramble!' is a concert overture for symphonic wind band inspired by images of the RAF's airfields during the Battle of Britain, immortalised for ever in such films as 'Reach for the Sky'. The pastoral opening depicts the lull before the storm: the young pilots sitting in wicker chairs outside their barracks on a sunlit morning. The peace is, of course, deceptive, suddenly amid siren sounds, there is a shout of 'Scramble!', and a rush to the waiting planes. In no time at all the squadron is airborne, heading for a skirmish over the English Channel and beyond. A lyrical central section featuring a solo cornet depicts the stillness many pilots described as they flew to engage the enemy, before the battle breaks out once more. For those who returned, it would be only a short while before, once again, they would hear the familiar shout of 'Scramble!'/ Répertoire / Orchestre D'Harmonie

Par SPARKE PHILIP. Les trois mouvements de cette pièce s’inspirent des rapports entre les humains et divers types de vents. Le premier, Alizés (Trade Winds), prend la forme d’une marche aux accents de chansons de marins, le deuxième mouvement, Encalminé (Becalmed), est de nature quasi statique, sans grand développement mélodique ou harmonique. Le finale, Porté par la tempête (Riding the Storm), dépeint les relations humaines, par le biais de vents tumultueux, dangereux, bénéfiques etvivifiants. / Niveau : 5 / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Storm of the Century. Par SCHWARZ OTTO M.. Introduction De nombreuses personnes se souviennent parfaitement du 18 janvier 2007. Ce jour-là, les services météorologiques avaient lancé plusieurs'bulletins d?alerte annonçant l?arrivée imminente de « la tempête du siècle ». Une dépression frontale venue de Terre-Neuve allait toucher'l?Europe sous la forme de vents tempétueux particulièrement violents. Kyrill, la pire des tempêtes depuis des décennies, devait toucher terre'en Allemagne dans l?après-midi. De nombreuses écoles furent fermées et les services d?urgence placés en état d?alerte maximale. Malgré ces'précautions, les événements qui suivirent dépassèrent de loin les plus sombres prévisions. Il y eut des morts, des blessés et des dégâts énormes'dans toute l?Europe. La région du Sauerland en Rhénanie-du-Nord-Westphalie (Allemagne) fut particulièrement touchée par la tempête. Kyrill sema la désolation'sur son passage, laissant des dizaines de foyers sans toit et des forêts éventrées. La filière bois a vu les fruits de plusieurs décennies de travail'anéantis en quelques heures. Des arbres vigoureux furent déracinés comme de vulgaires fétus de paille. Des forêts en ruines Si les vents tempétueux de Kyrill s?abattirent sur toute l?Europe, ils dévastèrent la région allemande du Schmallenberger Sauerland comme nulle autre. Ce jour-là, Otto M. Schwarz était chez lui, en Autriche. Il assista au passage de la tempête, mais ne prit véritablement conscience de ses conséquences dramatiques qu?à son arrivée à Bad Fredeburg (Sauerland) où il participait à une conférence organisée par le'Volksmusikerbundes NRW (Association pour la promotion des musiques traditionnelles en Rhénanie-du-Nord-Westphalie). Ernst Willi'Schulte, le directeur de l?association, lui montra alors l?étendue des dégâts sur le paysage de la région du Schmallenberger Sauerland. Force lui était de constater que la tempête qui avait balayé son Autriche natale était sans commune mesure avec la violence supportée par cette région allemande touchée de plein fouet par Kyrill. / Date parution : 2022-07-23/ Répertoire / Fanfare

Par SCHWARZ OTTO M.. Asteroids and comets have played an important role throughout the history of life on earth. It is quite probable that the dinosaurs have been exterminated by an asteroid's impact in the Gulf of Mexico. Huge tidal waves and fire storms wiped out all life. This is the year 2067 according to the Christian calendar. A collision has just taken place in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter and caused an asteroid to enter the earth's power of gravitation. It is instoppably approaching the blue planet. As its peoples have been fighting each other continuously, they missed the building of a global defence system against dangers coming from space. A scanner records the asteroid andimmediately sends a message to the President of the Anglo-American Union. The probability that the asteroid will hit the earth is judged 50% by the experts. Plans are made to shoot the celestial body with rockets live with hydrogen bombs or laser guns in order to throw it off its track, but they fail. The asteroid's size seems to threaten the existence of mankind. Those in the know stare at the night sky in bewilderment. But for the time being, there is still peace on earth. . . . / Niveau : 4 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
