On
letting go(Concerning the
selection of the texts)
In the selection of the
texts, I have allowed
myself to be motivated
and inspired by the
concept of 'letting go'.
This appears to me to be
one of the essential
aspects of dying, but
also of life itself. We
humans cling far too
strongly to successful
achievements, whether
they have to do with
material or ideal values,
or relationships of all
kinds. We cannot and do
not want to let go,
almost as if our life
depended on it. As we
will have to practise the
art of letting go at the
latest during our hour of
death, perhaps we could
already make a start on
this while we are still
alive. Tagore describes
this farewell with very
simple but strikingly
vivid imagery: 'I will
return the key of my
door'. I have set this
text for tenor solo. Here
I imagine, and have
correspondingly noted in
a certain passage of the
score, that the
protagonist finds himself
as though 'in an ocean'
of voices in which he is
however not drowning, but
immersing himself in
complete relaxation. The
phenomenon of letting go
is described even more
simply and tersely in
Psalm 90, verse 12: 'So
teach us to number our
days, that we may apply
our hearts unto wisdom'.
This cannot be expressed
more plainly.I have begun
the requiem with a solo
boy's voice singing the
beginning of this psalm
on a single note, the
note A. This in effect
says it all. The work
comes full circle at the
culmination with a repeat
of the psalm which
subsequently leads into a
resplendent 'lux
aeterna'. The
intermediate texts of the
Requiem which highlight
the phenomenon of letting
go in the widest spectrum
of colours originate on
the one hand from the
Latin liturgy of the
Messa da Requiem (In
Paradisum, Libera me,
Requiem aeternam, Mors
stupebit) and on the
other hand from poems by
Joseph von Eichendorff,
Hermann Hesse,
Rabindranath Tagore and
Rainer Maria Rilke.All
texts have a distinctive
positive element in
common and view death as
being an organic process
within the great system
of the universe, for
example when Hermann
Hesse writes: 'Entreiss
dich, Seele, nun der
Zeit, entreiss dich
deinen Sorgen und mache
dich zum Flug bereit in
den ersehnten Morgen'
['Tear yourself way , o
soul, from time, tear
yourself away from your
sorrows and prepare
yourself to fly away into
the long-awaited
morning'] and later: 'Und
die Seele unbewacht will
in freien Flugen
schweben, um im
Zauberkreis der Nacht
tief und tausendfach zu
leben' ['And the
unfettered soul strives
to soar in free flight to
live in the magic sphere
of the night, deep and
thousandfold']. Or Joseph
von Eichendorff whose
text evokes a distant
song in his lines: 'Und
meine Seele spannte weit
ihre Flugel aus. Flog
durch die stillen Lande,
als floge sie nach Haus'
['And my soul spread its
wings wide. Flew through
the still country as if
homeward bound.']Here a
strong romantically
tinged occidental
resonance can be detected
which is however also
accompanied by a
universal spirit going
far beyond all cultures
and religions. In the
beginning was the sound
Long before any sort of
word or meaningful phrase
was uttered by vocal
chords, sounds,
vibrations and tones
already existed. This
brings us back to the
music. Both during my
years of study and at
subsequent periods, I had
been an active
participant in the world
of contemporary music,
both as percussionist and
also as conductor and
composer. My early scores
had a somewhat
adventurous appearance,
filled with an abundance
of small black dots: no
rhythm could be too
complicated, no register
too extreme and no
harmony too dissonant. I
devoted myself intensely
to the handling of
different parameters
which in serial music
coexist in total
equality: I also studied
aleatory principles and
so-called minimal music.I
subsequently emigrated
and took up residence in
Spain from where I
embarked on numerous
travels over the years to
India, Africa and South
America. I spent repeated
periods during this time
as a resident in
non-European countries.
This meant that the
currents of contemporary
music swept past me
vaguely and at a great
distance. What I instead
absorbed during this
period were other
completely new cultures
in which I attempted to
immerse myself as
intensively as possible.I
learned foreign languages
and came into contact
with musicians of all
classes and styles who
had a different cultural
heritage than my own: I
was intoxicated with the
diversity of artistic
potential.Nevertheless,
the further I distanced
myself from my own
Western musical heritage,
the more this returned
insistently in my
consciousness.The scene
can be imagined of
sitting somewhere in the
middle of the Brazilian
jungle surrounded by the
wailing of Indians and
out of the blue being
provided with the
opportunity to hear
Beethoven's late string
quartets: this can be a
heart-wrenching
experience, akin to an
identity crisis. This
type of experience can
also be described as
cathartic. Whatever the
circumstances, my
'renewed' occupation with
the 'old' country would
not permit me to return
to the point at which I
as an audacious young
student had maltreated
the musical parameters of
so-called contemporary
music. A completely
different approach would
be necessary: an
extremely careful
approach, inching my way
gradually back into the
Western world: an
approach which would
welcome tradition back
into the fold, attempt to
unfurl the petals and
gently infuse this
tradition with a breath
of contemporary
life.Although I am aware
that I will not unleash a
revolution or scandal
with this approach, I am
nevertheless confident
as, with the musical
vocabulary of this
Requiem, I am travelling
in an orbit in which no
ballast or complex
structures will be
transported or intimated:
on the contrary, I have
attempted to form the
message of the texts in
music with the naivety of
a 'homecomer'. Harald

A Grateful Tail
- Movement by Movement
Siriusly, Dog Star
Sirius, the brightest
star in the night sky,
has been used by
travelers and navigators
for thousands of years as
a guiding star and so it
is here as the opening
movement for the
symphony. Sirius, the
cornerstone to the
constellation Canis
Maggiore or Big Dog sits
at the foot of Orion, the
hunter, leading the way.
Highly cinematic, the
movement evokes both a
musical and visual sense
of the mythological and
mysterious elements of
Sirius and its Dog
Godstar secrets. From the
clarion call of the
opening, Sirius theme,
the sound is buoyant and
frisky emulating the
nature of doggy playtime.
Puppy pleasures abound as
a doggy four-step, my
turn on the traditional
American two-step dance,
is introduced. The
movement transforms into
an actual orchestrated
frolic of small, large
and medium dog barks
beginning with the winds
(smaller dogs) and
ultimately, the big dog,
brass. The movement
climaxes with the coda
or, Dog Park, where the
winds and the brass bark
and play together over
the, doggy ostinato
four-step rhythm,
culminating with the
final call of the Sirius
theme. Let Sleeping Dogs
Lie, Peacefully It's all
in a dog's day and life.
Tranquility presides over
this supremely gentle,
intermezzo-like movement.
After a day of play,
every dog needs rest. Let
Sleeping Dogs Lie, is a
lyrical andante inspired
by the profound serenity
and beauty of a dog at
rest. The Last Will and
Testament of Silverdene
Emblem O'Neill Based on a
powerful piece of prose
written by the American
playwright, Eugene
O'Neill this text was
intended as a consolation
piece for Carlotta, his
wife, who had become
grief-stricken over the
loss of their beloved
dog, the Dalmatian known
as Blemie.Written for a
singing actor who
personifies the role of
Blemie, a dog at the end
of his life, the movement
plays like a one act,
musical drama as we
follow Blemie through a
wonderfully
three-dimensional,
emotional and
psychological journey
writing his Last Will and
Testament, for those who
have loved him. Wagging
the Tail: Ossia Fido's
Lament A life-affirming
rumba/samba using
Blemie's final words from
O'Neill's text, this
final movement employs
the most unique American
musical invention, the
gospel choir. In order to
make the dances come
alive, this movement also
calls upon the colors of
a rhythm section.
Creating the spirit of an
Irish Funeral, the
movement is a joyful and
revival-like celebration
of a dog's life as its
spirit lives on forever
in the hearts and minds
of dog lovers everywhere.
Remember Me, remember me!

grateful tail. Published

As
part of the year 2023,
dedicated to Swiss
composers, the Swiss Wind
Band Association has
commissioned Gauthier
Dupertuis to write a new
orchestration of the
Overture in E-flat major
by Stephan Jaeggi.
Indeed, an update of the
instrumentation was
necessary for the
interpretation of this
work with modern
orchestras. Therefore,
the orchestration that
Gauthier Dupertuis
proposes and which he
wanted to be faithful to
the original while
meeting current
standards, will allow
todayÂ’s orchestras to
perform this piece of
classical-romantic
inspiration. Stephan
Jaeggi was a Swiss
composer and conductor
who was born into a large
family in Fulenbach
(Canton of Solothurn) in
1903. He began playing
the clarinet at the age
of 13, then studied music
at the Basel Conservatory
and attended his military
training with the Swiss
Army Band. Thereafter, he
became the conductor of
several wind orchestras.
In this role, and also
that of a composer,
Stephan Jaeggi went on to
achieve great success.
His early death in 1957
put a premature end to
Stephan Jaeggi's creative
life. All the more reason
why his work lives on
with unbroken power to
this day.

In 3/4,
with some pizzicato and a
few slurs, the minor
melodies and gypsy-like
quality make A Gypsy's
Life a very appealing
selection composed by
Susan Day. The perfect
piece to introduce B-flat
to all sections of the
orchestra, program it in
conjunction with teaching
the F scale. Each section
gets the melody, allowing
them to easily recognize
the B-flats and
F-naturals. The viola
doubles the 2nd violin. A
Gypsy's Life is an
excellent and musical
teaching piece!

The major
upheavals that
transformed society and
musical aesthetics during
the first half of the
20th century also
profoundly affected the
life of Hanns Eisler, as
well as his compositions
and writings. The
importance and scope of
Eislers oeuvre are reason
enough to make his works
accessible to musical
scholarship and practice
in a comprehensive
fashion. Price reduction

In 3/4,
with some pizzicato and a
few slurs, the minor
melodies and gypsy-like
quality make this a very
appealing selection
composed by Susan Day.
The perfect piece to
introduce B-flat to all
sections of the
orchestra, program it in
conjunction with teaching
the F scale. Each section
gets the melody, allowing
them to easily recognize
the B-flats and
F-naturals. The viola
doubles the 2nd violin. A
Gypsy's Life is an
excellent and musical
teaching piece!

The word
GONG is saturated with
associations: the
splendour of the Orient,
mysticism, drama, loud
metallic clangour,
violent impact, etc. The
present piece draws upon
all those connotations,
but it is primarily a
symphonic drama about the
life and behaviour of the
sun, our closest star and
prime source of life on
Earth. Describing the sun
in music is not a new
idea, of course; during a
visit to Greece, Carl
Nielsen was inspired by
the orbit of the sun and
its very un-Danish
ferocity and thus wrote
the Helios Overture. GONG
is a Helios Overture too,
of sorts, albeit more
abstract. Recent
astronomical research
shows, that the surface
of the sun reverberates
like a gong, in four
different, simultaneous
tempi (not directly
depicted in the score,
though); the sun looks
like a GONG, - the O in
the written work looks
like the sun; there is
even a solar research
group called GONG (Global
Oscillation Network
Group). Formally the
composition follows the
life and fate of the sun,
from the initial
explotional birth through
the hyper-activity as
energy source as we know
it today to the final,
predicted flaring up and
collapse into a so-called
white dwarf. But - being
a musical composition,
not an astrophysical
thesis - GONG is brought
to its compositional
conclusion by a real
concert-ending, a chord
taken from the middle of
the piece and sustained
over several bars, from
virtual nothingness to
full force.

A perfect
addition for your spooky
fall concert! The
castanets represent bones
rattling and add a scary
touch! You can let the
string player with the
broken arm play the
castanet part! Each
section of the orchestra
gets to play melody lines
with easy rhythms.
Techniques featured are
pizzicato, accents,
tremolo, and some 1st
finger slides. The use of
energetic quarter notes
throughout will bring
this piece to life. A
surprise Boo at the end
will get the attention of
the audience. Great fun
for all! (3:45).

The
glory of Christmas comes
to life in this inspiring
musical by Lloyd Larson.
Through a blend of
familiar carols and
original songs, choirs
and congregations alike
will experience the
beauty of the incarnation
story as if
they’re
experiencing it for the
first time. This
versatile work may be
presented in multiple
segments over the Sundays
of Advent or as a single
presentation, and will be
equally effective with
piano accompaniment or
the full orchestra option
(live instruments or
accompaniment track). The
script for two narrators
is scripturally based and
seamlessly weaves in and
out of the music to
provide an inspiring
worship experience.
Opportunities for the
congregation to sing
familiar carols as well
as the availability of
both SATB and SAB
editions ensure that this
resource is suitable for
choirs large or
small.

reflects on the pivotal
moment that Jesus was
abandoned by God the
Father and was left alone
to die--sacrificing His
life and taking on the
sin of the world. The
dynamic lyrics then
rejoice in the
Resurrection with a
euphoric and victorious
ending.
