Wohlf
ahrt’s Foundation
Studies have long been
successful tools
forviolinists and
violists in mastering the
technical difficulties of
theirinstruments.
Originally conceived for
a complete comprehension
offirst position on the
violin and viola, Richard
Hughey presents thisnew
edition for cello
students. Transcribing
these etudes for the
cellopresents new
challenges for the
performer. Particular
passages, forexample,
require the student to
make use of the second
and eventhird positions.
The fingerings chosen for
these passages
reflectthese shifting
positions in a coherent
and logical way.
Trainedcomprehensively in
both cello and
conducting, Hughey shares
hiswealth of experience
and knowledge in
Wohlfahrt’s
FoundationStudies for the
Violoncello. The
violin etudes and
exercises of Franz
Wohlfahrt havebeen and
continue to be used by
violin and recently
violateachers the world
over. Franz was the son
of HeinrichWohlfahrt
(1797,
Kößnitz–1883
, Leipzig), a noted
pianoteacher who also
published many studies
for piano thatwere very
successful with younger
students.
Heinrichdeveloped a keen
sense for the pedagogical
development ofchildren
and composed excellent
studies accordingly.
Withthe education of his
sons Robert (1826,
Weimar–deathdate
unknown) and Franz (1833,
Frauenpriesnitz–18
84,Leipzig), he passed
these pedagogical
abilities to the
nextgeneration.In the
preface to his Violin
Studies Opus 45,
FranzWohlfahrt wrote:The
study of the violin
presents certain
difficultiesfor beginners
which are frequently the
cause of a suddendecrease
in the pupil’s
zeal and ambition, even
before he hasmastered the
first fundamentals.The
blame for this is
commonly laid on the
teacher,who is called
incapable or negligent;
losing sight of thefact
that the pupil began his
studies without the
slightestnotion, not
merely of the
difficulties to be
encountered,but also of
the regular and diligent
effort indispensable
forovercoming them.It is
important, therefore, to
smooth these first
severitiesby showing
their usefulness and
making them agreeable;
tothis end my Violin
Method was published and
the presentexercises have
been written, which
latter may be
consideredas forming a
supplement to the
former.If practiced
carefully and
intelligently, they will
serve asa solid
foundation for the
technique of any player
ambitiousto become an
artist.These studies have
been successful tools for
violinistsand violists to
begin to master the
technical difficulties
oftheir instruments.
Clearly conceived for a
more
completecomprehension of
the use of the first
position on the violinand
similarly for the viola,
presenting these etudes
forthe cello presents a
new challenge. As ongoing
violinistsand violists
can use the fourth finger
to play the note ofthe
next higher open string,
this is not possible on
thecello. To perform
these exercises on the
cello,
particularlyreaching the
“E†on the
A-string, requires the
studentto make use of the
second and even third
positions. Thefingerings
chosen for these passages
reflect the necessityof
shifting to these
positions. This is of
great advantage,as a new
set of studies now can be
used by the studentto
practice shifting to and
from those positions and
thusincreases technical
proficiency in the second
and thirdpositions of the
cello.

in a playable arrangement
for concert band. It is
my hope that this
arrangement will be
equally satisfying for
the young band with ample
rehearsal time or for the

wants a holiday favorite
they can perform with
limited rehearsal. The
piece is presented first
in a lush chorale format
with the use of extended
jazz harmonies. Special
care should be given to
balancing and tuning the
inner voices for the most
pleasant sound. After the
lush opening on the
famous refrain the
arrangement moves to the
bridge in an up-tempo
swing. In this section
the percussion is written
to imitate a drum set,
but if a set is available
it may be preferable to
use it in order to get
the right feel. Following
the bridge is another
statement of the refrain
followed by a hymn-style
section by the reeds with
jazz interjections by the
brass straight out of the
famous Perry Como
rendition. This is
followed by a D.S. to the
bridge, one more refrain
and then a short coda It

have the opportunity to

When Hearts
Tremble is an emotion
packed piece dedicated to
musician friends lost all
to soon. This beautiful
composition by Brant
Karrick reflects on the
fragility of human
existence, joyous
memories of loved ones
and their effect on
everyone around them, and
maintaining hope for what
the future will hold when
all feels lost. This tour
de force piece perfectly
displays Karrick's
polished compositional
craft with impeccable
scoring, beautiful
melodic writing, and
exceptional
orchestrational
color. While the
day-to-day grind of our
lives can be filled with
overwhelming obligations,
goals and commitments, it
is sometimes very easy to
forget just how precious
and fragile life is . It
is so easy to get caught
up in our own personal
feelings and worries that
we sometimes don’t
realize and appreciate
the many blessings we
have, especially
friendships . On
Wednesday, November 18,
2015 the Jefferson High
School Band in Jefferson,
Georgia lost two of its
members to a fatal car
accident . The victims
were brothers . Music was
a constant part of their
lives, and the boys were
talented percussionists
in the marching band . To
help with the grieving
process the school and
community commissioned
this piece to celebrate
the lives of William and
Alex Trimble .As a
father, I cannot imagine
losing a child, let alone
two, and beginning this
piece was very difficult
as I felt extreme
anguish, especially for
the parents . But it was
decided the piece should
primarily reflect the
enthusiasm, youthful
spirits and positive
influence these two young
men demonstrated as they
were deeply loved by
their band mates,
community and family .
There are four main
themes, each representing
the feelings and emotions
that are certain to occur
after a loss of loved
ones . The first theme is
a short, introductory
fanfare, strong and bold,
to stand for courage . A
second dance-like melody
features a liltingly
mixed meter to portray a
youthful and carefree
innocence . This soon
changes into a third more
song-like, and stately
theme intended to provide
encouragement as we move
forward through life .The
middle of the piece
includes a soft
transition as two snare
drummers give voice to
the boys, allowing them
to thank their friends
and assuring them that it
will be okay . This moves
directly into a slow
melody introduced by the
saxophones (Alex, the
younger brother was also
a saxophonist) and is a
time for reflection and
allows for feelings of
sadness at losing beloved
friends . However, a
second statement of the
same theme, now at full
volume with a strong
percussion cadence,
intends to lift the
spirits and allows all
friends to unite in
joyous celebration of
life . Both the
enthusiastic dance theme
and stately lyrical theme
return, now in different
keys, and work their way
toward the highly
energetic burst of
glorious sound in the
short and wild coda .
When Hearts Tremble was
written to celebrate the
joys of youth and life,
and should remind us that
our friends and loved
ones are precious, and we
should live each day to
bring more joy into the
world and into the lives
of others .

After
decades as a renowned
oboe virtuoso, Katherine
Needleman was improvising
at the piano during the
quarantine summer of 2020
when her ideas congealed
in a powerful way. Within
a week she completed a
16-minute oboe sonata
inspired by the
world’s
overlapping crises. This
riveting three-movement
sonata bears the title
qua resurget ex favilla,
drawn from the Dies Irae
text referring to rising
back from ashes.
Needleman won the
International Double Reed
Society’s
Inaugural Commissioning
Competition by entering
her own recording of this
work, performing as
both oboist and pianist
from her living room. As
a result, IDRS
commissioned her to
compose a new work for
English horn and piano
which was premiered at
their 2021 Virtual
Symposium and programmed
for the live 2022
convention. I’m
not exactly sure how, in
a life consumed by music,
I never put anything on
paper between the time I
stopped at age 10 and the
age of 42. I mean, I have
some ideas why, but that
could easily dissolve
into a feminist manifesto
or a condemnation of my
musical education and the
overwhelming culture of
American oboe playing,
the vehicle through which
I’ve made a living
my entire adult life.
Rather than go there, I
will just say this is the
first piece I put on
paper in my adult
life.Six months into
COVID-19 lockdown in the
US, the world was feeling
pretty weird. I had
familiarized myself with
the music notation
program, Sibelius, for
recent arranging
projects. I had written
some mockeries of A.M.R.
Barret oboe etudes in
response to an assignment
I was given (and did
appropriately first).
When I descended into a
dark chorale in the
middle of the fourth
mockery, I realized I
needed a new vehicle. I
wrote a short, ridiculous
piece for my
husband’s
birthday, and then, the
next night, when
improvising at the piano,
like I’ve done
since I was seven years
old, this piece came to
me. However, this time, I
sketched it out into
Sibelius. Over the course
of the next week, I found
notating and picking
permanent, official notes
to enter into the
computer challenging. But
it was all done on paper
in seven days, and I took
another few for dynamics
and articulations
thinking they might be
useful for someone else,
if I would ever be lucky
enough for someone else
to play it.I don’t
have much to say about
the music of qua resurget
ex favilla itself.
It’s a personal
statement couched in the
feelings of that time.
The US presidential
election was looming
large and ugly in my
mind, well, that and the
end of life as we knew
it, but I also had some
bizarre feeling that
everything would be
okay.

Ephrem Feeley. Text by
James Quinn.
In the
Gospel of John, there are
a number of times when
Jesus uses the statement
“I Am,†which
his followers would have
automatically linked to
the divine Name. Some of
these
statements—Christ
as the Bread of Life, the
Gateway, the Light of the
World—are
referenced in
Quinn’s text, as
well as the Alpha and
Omega, which is found
three times in
Revelation. A few of
these statements also
appear in the refrain.
The verses may be sung by
a cantor or the choir.
There are a number of
musically effective ways
to use this piece in
liturgy: with the full
choir, as written,
simply, with cantor and
assembly, or with a
two-part refrain, using
only the soprano and
tenor lines.
