Commissione d by The United States Marine Band and premiered in 1987, Clare Grundman's Concord has remained a staple in the wind band repertoire. The middle section of this work is a beautiful chorale based on the early hymn “America” composed by William Billings. Adapted here as a stand alone piece for younger bands, this is a stunning example of lyric writing and glorious harmonies. Dur: 1:40.

The opening Chorale section of this very appealling beginning band piece introduces the theme that is then used in the Canon that follows. Skillfully designed to pass the melody to every section, this is a very rewarding piece for beginning groups. First published in 1984.

Written in a sophisticated and dynamic style, this work from James Curnow is more impressive sounding than the easy grade level would indicate. Opening with a rhythmic and intense tocatta, this theme is contrasted with a sustained and lyric chorale section. Both themes are combined at the end for a powerful and rewarding finish.

Composed by Max Reger. Arranged by Philip Sparke. Ceremonial Series. Hymns & Chorals. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2003. Anglo Music Press #AMP 034-010. Published by Anglo Music Press (BT.AMP-034-010).

During his short lifetime Max Reger (1873-1916) was a prolific composer with many of his best known works being composed for organ. The ten chorale preludes in this selection are from his set of Thirty Short Chorale Preludes Op.135a composed as short voluntaries for liturgical use rather than for recitals in these arrangements Philip Sparke has kept this in mind and each prelude can be performed with minimal instrumentation for those occasions where a small band is needed. They also make great pieces for band warm-ups or studies in intonation, sound and balance.

Max Reger (1873-1916) is de componist van 30 Koraalbewerkingen, op. 135a voor orgel. Hieruit stammen deze tien preludes. Eigenlijk waren ze bedoeld als vrij muzikaal intermezzo binnen de kerkelijke muziek. En ook met dit arrangementvoor blaasorkest houdt Philip Sparke rekening met dit oorspronkelijke doel. Hij maakte ze speelbaar voor een minimale bezetting zodat u ze ook met een klein ensemble tijdens de kerkdienst kunnen uitvoeren. Verder zijn ze ook bijzondergeschikt als opwarmstuk en als stem-, klank- of balansoefening. Bovendien kunt u ze als kleine suite gebruiken in een concertprogramma. Veelzijdig!

Max Reger komponierte eine Fülle an Werken vieler Genres. Unter anderem schrieb er 30 kleine Vorspiele zu den gebräuchlichsten Chorälen für Orgel, die mehr als für den liturgischen Rahmen, denn als Vortragsstücke gedacht waren. Seine Blasorchesterbearbeitung dieser zehn Präludien machte Philip Sparke daher für eine minimale Besetzung spielbar, so dass sie auch Gottesdienst verwendet werden können. Außerdem eignen sie sich auch hervorragend als Aufwärmstücke, Stimm-, Klang- oder Balanceübungen oder in verschiedenen Zusammenstellungen als kleine Suiten für den Konzertgebrauch. Eine vielseitige Sammlung, die in keinem Repertoire fehlen sollte!

Max Reger (1873-1916) a composé les 30 petits Préludes de choral pour orgue, op. 135a, dont sont extraits les dix préludes choisis pour cet arrangement pour orchestre d’harmonie. Philip Sparke est resté fidèle aux pièces originales. Le choix de l’instrumentation permet d’interpréter ces dix préludes avec une formation effectif réduit qui peut être amenée participer un office. Ces pièces peuvent également être utilisées pour effectuer une mise en lèvres ou pour travailler l’intonation, le son et l’équilibre entre les différents pupitres.

Nella sua breve vita Max Reger (1873-1916) fu un compositore molto prolifico noto per le sue composizioni per organo. Le dieci corali arrangiate da Philip Sparke fanno parte de Thirty Short Chorale Preludes Op. 135a, composte per uso liturgico piuttosto che recitativo. Questo arrangiamento tiene conto del fatto che ogni preludio può essere eseguito con una strumentazione minima. Dieci pezzi ideali anche come riscaldamento, studio dell’intonazione e del suono.

Composed by Philip Sparke. Anglo Music Midway Series. Concert Piece. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2003. Anglo Music Press #AMP 056-010. Published by Anglo Music Press (BT.AMP-056-010).

As the title suggests, this piece comprises a set of variations on an original chorale,which is presented in the opening bars.The chorale uses the dark middle and lower sections of the band and is extended with minor variations until a pause leads to the first real variation, marked Vivo. This is in the form of a moto perpetuo. The second variation is a beautiful Andante introduced by a solo clarinet. Following a full band climax the final variation opens with quiet, nervous energy until its main theme is introduced.The chorale makes a brief appearance until the main theme reappears. This leads to a triumphant final augmented statement of the chorale theme, decorated by theflorid clarinet theme in the upper woodwinds. A dazzling new concert work.

Zoals de titel al aangeeft, bestaat het stuk uit een aantal variaties op een oorspronkelijk koraal, dat aan het begin wordt ge ntroduceerd. Het koraal, stevig verankerd in c mineur, komt naar voren in de donkere midden- en lage sectiesvan het orkest en wordt uitgebouwd met variaties in mineur, totdat een korte pauze de overgang vormt naar de eerste echte variatie, Vivo getiteld. Dit is een moto perpetuo. De tweede variatie, een krachtige Andante, introduceerteen soloklarinet. Na een climax in het hele orkest vangt de laatste variatie aan met een stille, nerveuze energie totdat het hoofdthema naar voren komt. Het koraal duikt even op totdat het hoofdthema weer verschijnt. Dit leidtnaar een glorierijke laatste reprise van het koraalthema in verbreding, omspeeld met het zwierige klarinetthema in het hoge hout. Een verbluffend nieuw concertwerk.

In drei sehr unterschiedlichen Variationen kommen in diesem Werk alle Register des Blasorchesters zum Zug: Die mittleren und tieferen Register stellen den originalen Choral in Moll vor, darauf folgt die erste, lyrische Variation im Tenorregister. Eine Solo-Klarinette präsentiert die metrische zweite Variation, abgelöst vom gesamten Blasorchester. Die hohen Holzbläser spielen eine wichtige Rolle in der dritten Variation, die zunächst verhalten einsetztt, dann aber das Werk zu einem triiumphalen Schluss führt. Ein interessantes Werk, das keine Wünsche bei Musikern oder Zuhörern offen lässt!

Chorale and Variations est une oeuvre de commande pour l’École Intercommunale de Gaillon Aubevoye en France (Dir. : Thierry Patel). Cette pièce est structurée selon la forme du choral suivi de trois variations sur le thème. Ancré dans la tonalité de Do mineur, le choral se développe dans les registres médium et grave de l’orchestre puis est élargi avec une succession de variations lyriques, florissantes, triomphantes et ornementées.
