Trauermarsch. Par VAN BERINGEN ROBERT. Robert van Beringen s’est inspiré d’un grand thème classique pour cette marche de funérailles, dont le trio mélancolique nous rappelle l’ Adagio qui semblerait en fait avoir été composé, selon de récentes découvertes, par le musicologue Remo Giazotto d’après un fragment d’une sonate d’Albinoni retrouvé parmi les ruines de la bibliothèque de Dresde, après son bombardement durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Écrite dans une version pour instrumentation variable à quatre voix (avec percussion ad libitum), Funeral March pourra être interprété lors d’une cérémonie funéraire, d’une procession de l’église au cimetière, ou lors d’un concert commémoratif. / Niveau : 2.5 / Musique pour célébration / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie ou Fanfare

Par SCHAARS PETER KLEINE. Né dans les années 1960, le funk est un style musical très rythmé. Le chanteur américain James Brown et un groupe de la Nouvelle-Orléans, The Meters, sont considérés comme les fondateurs de ce genre. Le funk se caractérise par une ligne de basse indépendante qui souligne le premier temps de la mesure, ainsi que par une combinaison rythmique de mélodies syncopées et d’accompagnements chargés d’adjonctions harmoniques. Adoptant pleinement ce style, la composition de Peter Kleine Shaars est l’heureuse fusion des ingrédients harmoniques, mais aussi des difficultés de la musique funk. D'une part, les cellules rythmiques 9, 10, 14, 15 et 16 font de New Orleans Funk un exercice pédagogique : d’autre part, cette pièce apportera une belle ambiance funky à vos répétitions et vos concerts !/ Répertoire / Concert Band/Harmonie/Fanfare

For Trombones And Band. Par EVERS HARM. Le 31 octobre des milliers d'enfants nord-américains f¼tent Halloween. Au fil du temps, la citrouille est devenue le symbole d'Halloween. Ainsi, l'entrée de chaque maison est décorée d'une citrouille creusée de deux yeux, d'un nez et d'une bouche fortement dentée, et illuminée par une bougie. Certaines citrouilles ont un visage effrayant, d'autres drôle et fantasque. Dans The Funny Pumpkins ('Drôles de citrouilles'), les trombones de votre formation fournissent un assortiment de lanternes-citrouilles amusantes. / Niveau : 3 / Marche / Répertoire / 3 Trombones et Fanfare

Par PASTORE CARMINE. Fun for all!! The chorale style opening soon turns into a rousing, funky-jazzy-gospel riff-style roof-raiser that will have your audience tapping along. It's nice for the concert band to get the opportunity to play something 'jazzy' once in a while, and you know the audience will love it as much as the band does. Plenty of opportunity to study jazz-style phrasing in the concert band, interesting Percussion parts, a catchy tune and good linear motion for all move GETTIN' GOSPEL to the 'top of the list'. The only danger here is that the band might like it a little TOO much, and want to play it every day. / Niveau : 2 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Fanfare

Par BULLA STEPHEN. All right. Admit it. When you were a kid, some of your favorite music came from cartoonland. Who knows? It may have been cartoons that first introduced you to your favorite classical masters. Would Rossini's 'William Tell Overture' be what it is today had there been no cartoons? Isn't the glissando the REAL reason your Trombone section decided to play that particular instrument? Treat yourself, your band, and your audience to some good old animated goofiness, a few merry melodies, and a lot of slapstick fun. They'll love it. What could be more fun than Stephen Bulla's CARTOON CAPERS? / Niveau : 3 / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par CURNOW JAMES. Fiddle tunes have been an important part of American music since her earliest days. You’ll enjoy James Curnow’s new suite based on two fiddle tunes from the Revolutionary War period. The first movement uses the flowing melody Lovely Nancy, which is about a beautiful two-masted sailing ship. The second movement comes from a knee-slapping fast paced dance tune called Hay Makers. This will be a wonderful contrast piece to use for that lighter moment in your concert. It’s always fun to explore band music that is a bit out of the ordinary! This one is great fun from beginning to end and carries a marvelous historic connection as well! / Niveau : 4 / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par BULLA STEPHEN. Authentic Big Band swing style music for the concert band! You know this one will be a crowd pleaser, and SO much fun to play! Stephen Bulla works his magic with the great Jazz sounds of the 40s and 50s in such a way that your band will be able to put it together and make it happen. Lots of great jazz style articulation and harmonic considerations ensure that your students are doing more than just playing the piece. They are learning Big Band Jazz style interpretation in the bargain, and loving it as they do. This is a great opportunity to study the historical American roots of Jazz! / Niveau : 3 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Concert Band
