Hugh
Macdonald.
Saint-Sa
ëns was a great
admirer of the symphonic
poems by Franz Liszt. His
own symphonic poem
“Danse
macabre†reflects
not only his affinity to
medieval superstitions
but also constitutes a
tribute to Liszt’s
“Totentanzâ€.<
br> “Danse
macabre†is based
on the eponymous song
Saint-Saëns composed
in 1872 after Henri
Cazalis’ poem. At
its premiere, the work
was not well-received; in
fact it was booed,
possibly due to the
“diabolicâ€
solo violin playing on an
E-string that was tuned
down to E-flat, which the
audience might have
misinterpreted as being
out of tune. However
within ten years the work
had become so popular
that Saint-Saëns
quoted some of its
musical themes in
“The Carnival of
the Animalsâ€. Since
the composer’s
death, “Danse
macabre†is among
the works most often
mentioned in connection
with the theatrical face
of death found in popular
mortuary cult.

“Fren
ch composer and
conductor, Henri Tomasi
(1901-1971) published
Gregorian Variations on a
Salve Ragina 1964. As
with his other wind
compositions, Gregorian
Variations for Trumpet
and String Orchestra and
Organ reduction was
well-received by
audiences. Tomasi was
born in Marseille, but
his Father and Mother
were originally from La
Casinca in Corsica.
Despite being pressured
in to musical studies by
his parents, Tomasi
dreamed of becoming a
sailor, and during the
summer, he stayed with
his Grandmother in
Corsica where he learnt
traditional Corsican
songs. However, in 1921,
he began his studies at
the Paris Conservatoire
and went on to become a
high profile composer and
conductor. Tomasi did not
forget his Corsican
routes, often
incorporating themes of
the songs he had learnt
during the summers with
his Grandmother into his
compositions. Gregorian
Variations on a Salve
Regina is a highly
unusual and modern work
based on an old Marian
Hymn (a song for the
Virgin Mary). The
variations exploit
tonality, rhythm and
structure amongst other
aspects. This Tomasi
piece is suitable for
advanced trumpeters,
providing an exciting,
alternative addition to
the instrument's
repertoire.â€.

In autumn
1895, after returning
from New York once and
for all, Dvorák took
up his former position as
teacher at the Prague
Conservatory. This
clearly had an inspiring
impact on him because in
the space of just four
weeks he composed a new
string quartet in G
major. Together with the
Quartet in A-flat major
op. 105, it forms a
glorious close to his
chamber music oeuvre.
Echoes of Bohemian folk
music are here mixed with
cantabile themes, while
his motivic working shows
him to be a master at the
height of his powers.
Even today, it seems
almost as if we can feel
the composer's
satisfaction with this
work: “I am working
so easily and it is going
so smoothly that I could
not wish it
better.â€.

‘Toccata
Festiva’ was
commissioned in 1994 by
the Dutch Brass Band
Championships. The wind
band version was made a
year later by the
composer himself.
Historically speaking,
the toccata is considered
to be one of the first
independent instrumental
forms for keyboard
instruments. Originally
the toccata was typically
more or less improvised,
later this musical form
was given a more
regulated structure. Both
elements are used in the
‘Toccata
Festiva’: on the
one hand the different
themes are developed
freely, on the other, the
piece has an orderly
structure. It is in a
three part form
(quick-slow-quick) and
includes both strong
rhythmical figures and
broad melodic lines.
Partof the composition is
written in a more or less
archaic tone idiom,
referring to the period
from which the toccata
form originates (16th
century).

Pachelbelâ
™s Canon in D has
become a staple in
western music, especially
when it comes to
weddings. It’s a
wonderful piece of music
with exciting melodies
that grow throughout the
work. However, there is
one major problem with
this piece from the
perspective of cello and
bass players. Their part
only contains a pattern
of 8 notes that get
repeated over and over
and over. 28 times to be
exact. To remedy this,
composer Katie
O’Hara LaBrie has
created
Pachelbel’s
Rhapsody, a dream-like
variation on
Pachelbel’s
original themes which
allows for all parts of
the orchestra to
shine.

The G major
mass of Mozart followed a
very special type of mass
pattern, namely, that of
the Missa pastoralis. In
Mozart's time it was a
widespread type of mass,
especially in Bohemia and
Italy, in which melodies
and rhythms like those
familiar from pastoral
Christmas music were
frequently found. The
themes in this type of
mass are song-like and
often make use of
folksongs or references
to well-known tunes. This
work is now available in

Songs are
part of the childhood.
This collection aims to
offer a variety of songs
for string ensembles,
such as young string
orchestras or string
classes. Included are
older and newer songs,
songs of various origins,
and songs for different
occasions and with themes
ranging from animals to
seasons and times of day
to tongue-in-cheek scary
subjects.Taking up the
motif of diversity in
their own way, the
six-part arrangements are
not confined to the usual
cadence harmonies and
accompaniment forms,
There is something
special to discover in
each of the songs. Small
vignettes with lyrics to
them are found in the
parts, and can be taken
up in rehearsals and
lessons.The songs begin
with fingering positions
and bowing techniques
that are usually learned
at the beginning of
lessons, then gradually
increase in difficulty,
though the booklet as a
whole is set at the
elementary level.
Suggestions for
improvisation and pieces
for practicing certain
requirements round out
the booklet. Special
emphasis is placed on
playing together - true
to the title: Together on
Strings!

Natu
re and landscape have
been the dominant themes
of much of Rhian Samuel's
vocal music of the last
ten years, projected
chiefly through the
poetry of Anne Stevenson,
and in her most recent
song-settings, the
writings of the
Pakistan-born Texas-based
poet Zulfikar Ghose. His
poem 'Conspiracy of the
Clouds' describes how,
the clouds having chosen
to become invisible,
'Even the astronauts on
the space shuttle /
looked down on a
cloudless America' as
hurricanes ravage
Louisiana and storms
engulf Nebraska. An
intriguing conceit in the
tradition of magic
realism, the text is
presented as a scena
lasting around 16
minutes, with
interpolations from
'Haze' by the
nineteenth-century New
England transcendentalist
Henry David Thoreau. Thus
modern fable and romantic
nature-description are
juxtaposed, and their
interaction becomes the
source of musical
contrasts too. Thoreau's
words are assigned
predominantly to the
vocalist's highest
register, those of Ghose
to her lower tessitura;
and the suggestive and
dramatic accompaniment
builds tension steadily
to the final ironic
response of an
incredulous American
public: not one of awe
and wonder, but the
question 'Why weren't we
told about it?

The
Hida High School is in a
highland city called
Takayama in Gifu
Prefecture. Takayama City
has some of the highest
mountains in Japan,
atmospheric rows of
houses and streets, and a
beautiful landscape. The
magnificent views from
these mountains can be
described as a paradise
above the clouds. When
the composer visited
there in the summer of
2001, the lovely flowers
spreading through the
valley and the refreshing
air welcomed him. The
flowers looked as if they
were fashionably dressed
and fully enjoying
conversation and a short
summer at a reunion
party. The composer was
inspired by this scenery
to compose this piece.
The musical party opens
with happy greetings of a
reunion andjoyful themes
follow one after another.
A light xylophone solo, a
waltz and an adagio
featuring alternate solos
by alto saxophone,
euphonium and trumpet
lead to a brilliant
finale featuring brass
and percussion played in
irregular time. A
beautiful musical picture
that your band will enjoy
performing for many
years.
