A warm and
richly scored setting of
the popular Christmas
carol Bring a Torch
Jeanette, Isabella, this
full sounding arrangement
will greatly enrich
seasonal programming. Roy
Phillippe has employed a
broad palette of harmonic
and instrumental colors
to craft a memorable
holiday
selection. Bring a
Torch is a lovely
Christmas carol. Using
techniques such as
suspensions,
re-harmonization and
modulations, my goal is
to provide an interesting
showcase for this
familiar melody. the
introduction in F major
features sustained
violins with a pattern of
moving eighth notes in
the violas and cellos.
This pattern recurs
throughout the piece. The
first statement of the
melody is in the first
violins. The second
violins supply harmonic
support along with the
viola/cello pattern.
Measures 13-29 feature a
section of tutti chordal
playing. Measure 30
crescendos into the
modulation to D major at
m. 32. Here, the dynamic
is forte, and the
viola/cello pattern
returns. At m. 40, the
violas and cellos have
the melody with violin
accompaniment. A
crescendo begins at m. 44
and builds
to fortissimo at m.
48, featuring a
modulation to G major. At
this point the melody
should soar. A
descrescendo at m. 60 is
followed by a ritard
at m. 64. The final four
measures are in the
original tempo ending on
a tutti chord.Careful
attention to dynamics,
especially in the
accompanying parts, will
result in a fine
performance.

A
very practical collection
for accompanying hymns.
Composer Edward Eicker
has taken ten familiar
and frequently-used hymn
tunes and provided each
with an
artful introduction
and a free harmonization,
often used for a final
stanza. In addition,
there is a modulation
provided for each tune
that takes the hymn up
one step. The modulation
is followed by the same
free harmonization in the
new key. This collection
provides organists with
great
flexibility—any
one of the four items
provided for the hymns
can be used by itself or
in any combination with
the others.

Based on our
popular New Bennett Band
Book series, we have
compiled march-style
warm-ups in a separate
publication so they may
be used by all bands
wishing to learn from
them. These innovative
warm-ups and fundamental
drills are the ultimate
method of teaching and
reinforcing the March
style. How To Use the
March Warm-upsPlaying in
a march style can present
difficulties for young
students. The most
prevalent problem is that
students have a tendency
to play every note too
short. Conversely,
accented notes are
usually played
incorrectly with too much
tongue. Do marches
contain short notes?
Absolutely, but these
shortest of notes should
be reserved for notes
that precede an accent or
notes that are
specifically marked with
a staccato. Think of
unmarked notes as being
separated, but not short
and certainly not clipped
or stopped with the
tongue. Accented notes
should be played with
more weight using air and
more length, and not just
a harder tongue. Accents
are given to show
emphasis to a note and
should be thought of in
this manner.The warm-up
exercises provided in
this collection should
give you many
opportunities to stress
the above-mentioned
comments on march
performance style. The
following gives an
explanation on the
purpose and use of each
of these exercises.No. 1
– Basic Chords and
ModulationsOne of the
challenges of playing
marches with young
students is successfully
performing the key change
at the Trio. This
exercise presents the
three basic chords
(tonic, subdominant and
dominant) in each of the
three keys in this
collection of marches.
You can also use this
exercise to teach and
reinforce the style of
accented notes. You may
want to have your band
play major scales in
succession by fourths to
reinforce the concept of
modulation to the
subdominant that occurs
at the Trio (i.e. the
B≤-major scale,
then the E≤-major
scale, then the
A≤-major scale). I
might suggest getting the
students to try
continuing the pattern
all the way around the
circle of fourths.No. 2
– March Style in
B≤ MajorThis
exercise contains many
opportunities to teach
and reinforce the
difference between
staccato and accented
notes. The melody voices
move up and down the
B≤-major scale,
while other instruments
play chords commonly
found in the marches in
this collection. These
include diminished
chords, secondary
dominant chords (i.e. the
V of the V) and other
common chromatic chords
that Fillmore often
used.No. 3 –
Cakewalk Rhythm in
B≤ MajorThe simple
syncopated rhythm in this
exercise is common to
many marches. This drill
gives you the opportunity
to teach/ reinforce the
standard ar-ticulation
and natural accent of
this rhythmic pattern.
Again, this exercise uses
an ascending and
descending major-scale
pattern as the melodic
basis, accompanied by
chords commonly found in
American- style
marches.No. 4 –
The March Scale in
B≤ MajorI call this
exercise “The March
Scale,†because
often in marches (and
especially in these
marches) the descending
half-step is part of the
melodic material. These
chromatic figures give
the melodies of many
marches their charm and
flow. Thus, I devised
this exercise and others
like it in E≤ major
and A≤ major to
familiarize students with
these patterns. I would
suggest playing the
pattern in a variety of
ways different from what
is written. Here are some
other
possibilities:•
Tongue one, slur
three• Slur two,
tongue two• Tongue
two, slur two•
Tongue one, slur two,
tongue oneGradually
increase the tempo to the
march tempo and the
articulation style will
fall right into
place.Another important
consideration is the
performance of the bass
line and the bass-drum
part. Too often, the bass
drum and bass instruments
play their parts with
equal emphasis on both
beats in the measure.
This is incorrect, and
frequently makes the
marchNo. 5 – March
Style in E≤
MajorThis is a similar to
exercise No. 2, but with
a different rhythmic
pattern. Emphasize the
difference between
accented and unaccented
notes. Also, play the
exercise with line
direction moving the
musical line forward.
Experiment and play the
exercise with different
dynamic choices and with
hairpins up and down in
different ways.No. 6
– More March Style
in E≤ MajorExercise
No. 6 comprises more
rhythmic patterns and
harmonic materials in
E≤ major to teach
and reinforce the march
style. This exercise
em-phasizes the
sixteenth-note rhythm, as
notated in the third
measure of the exercise.
Young stu- dents have a
tendency to
“crush†the
sixteenths; consequently,
they lack clarity. It
would be a good idea to
work this rhythmic figure
on a scale pattern with
all of the instruments in
the band as an additional
warm-up exercise.No. 7
– The March Scale
in E≤ MajorSee the
information for No. 4 and
apply it to this
exercise. Use all of the
various articulations
described above as
well.No. 8 – March
Style in A≤
MajorSee the information
for No. 2 and apply it to
this exercise.No. 9
– Cakewalk Rhythm
in A≤ MajorSee the
information for No. 3 and
apply it to this
exercise.No. 10 –
The March Scale in
A≤ MajorSee the
information for No. 4 and
apply it to this
exercise.Other Ideas for
March PerformanceA
rehearsal practice that
has worked very well for
me is to start out by
having the band play the
march very slowly at
about Å’ = 60 in a
chorale/legato style. The
slow tempo is a fine
opportunity to work on
clarity of harmonic move-
ment and to work on the
balance and blend of the
tutti band sound. This
will pay great dividends
toward improving the
sound of your band.
Gradually increase the
tempo to the march tempo
and the articulation
style will fall right
into place.Another
important consideration
is the performance of the
bass line and the
bass-drum part. Too
often, the bass drum and
bass instruments play
their parts with equal
emphasis on both beats in
the measure. This is
incorrect, and frequently
makes the march.

'African
Patchwork' was created
for the European 'Albert
Schweitzer Year 2013' in
remembrance of the
foundation of the
hospital in Lambarene 100
years ago (1913). The
organ sound, thought of
as an ideal here, is the
typical 'Albert
Schweitzer sound':
romantic, soft diapasons
and string parts, hardly
any mixtures, cymbals and
tongues. This dark
fundamental sound is
joined by the djembe with
its richness of high
harmonics and its ability
of modulation (the
best-known of the African
drums can be used in
different sizes).
Depending on the
percussionist's
creativity, the
percussion part, notated
in a quite rudimentary
way, can be extended by
various playing
techniques, drum changes
and pitch modulations of
the drumhead. The notated
percussion part can also
be used as a basis for
intuitive and
improvisational
playing.

“Ital
ian composer, Domenico
Scarlatti (1685-1757) is
well-known for his
Keyboard compositions.
His 555 Keyboard Sonatas
remain ever popular to
this day, and it is for
this reason that this
second volume is
indispensable to
performers of the genre.
Originally composed for
the Harpsichord, Organ or
early Pianoforte, the
Sonatas display the
riveting use of discords
and unconventional
modulations to remote
keys. It is also thought
that much of Scarlatti's
Keyboard music contains
influences of Iberian
music, considering that
he spent much of his
working life in the
service of the Spanish
and Portuguese royal
families. The second
volume, comprising
Sonatas 53-103, includes
the popular and
recognised Sonatas in F
minor (K. 69) and B minor
(K. 87). Bearing in mind
that Domenico Scarlatti
was a highly competent
and popular Keyboard
player in his day, so
much so that he was
employed in the service
of two royal families,
his Sonatas are composed
with much experience,
understanding and
expertise, creating an
essential addition to the
repertoire of all
Keyboard players of the
Baroque genre.
