A
programatic work by
composer Doris Gazda that
sets out to depict the
historic moon landing by
the Apollo 11 astronauts
and the famous first step
by Neil Armstrong. A
sound portrait of this
remarkable event in
America history. In
July, 1959 the world
watched and listened as
the astronauts of Apollo
11 traveled from the
Earth to the moon. The
mission, launched by
NASA, successfully
carried men to the
surface of the moon and
returned them safely to
earth. The spaceship was
made up of a command
module, Columbia, and a
lunar module, Eagle.
Astronauts Neil
Armstrong, flight
commander, and Buzz
Aldrin, pilot of the
lunar module, actually
walked on the moon. The
third astronaut, Michael
Collins, piloted
Columbia, the command
module that orbited the
moon while Armstrong and
Aldrin were on the lunar
surface.The 238,000-mile
trip to the moon took
four days. Apollo 11 fell
into orbit 60 miles above
the moon's surface. The
Eagle separated from
Columbia, orbited the
moon nine miles above the
surface and then made a
powered descent, touching
down on the moon in the
Seat of Tranquility. Six
hours after landing,
Armstrong stepped onto
the moon's surface
uttering these memorable
words that brought to
reality the possibilities
of space travel and
exploration, That's one
small step for man, one
giant leap for
mankind.Armstrong and
Aldrin spent two hours
walking on the lunar
surface. They set up some
scientific equipment,
raised an American flag
and left a plaque signed
by the Apollo 11 crew and
President Richard Nixon,
reading:Here men from
planet earth first set
foot upon the moon. July
1969 A.D. We came in
peace for all
mankind.Twenty-one hours
after landing, the Eagle
with Armstrong and Aldrin
onboard, left the moon to
reunite with Columbia.
After docking
successfully, all three
men got into Columbia.
They jettisoned the Eagle
and Columbia left lunar
orbit to make the return
trip. Two days later
Columbia re-entered the
Earth's atmosphere and
splashed down in the
Pacific Ocean.

From the
Rocky Mountains to the
Pacific Ocean, Path to
the Pacific reflects the
open, airy and
picturesque qualities of
the American West. These
textures are painted
through the use of light
syncopation, key
modulations and triplets
that will certainly
ch. From the opening
driving cello melody to
the final ensemble
flourish, Path to the
Pacific is an exciting
and rewarding piece for
young players to play.The
accents in the cello
during the lively
introduction at m. 1 are
integral to the feel of
the melodic line and
provide an engaging
technical challenge. The
AAB form begins as the
piece decrescendos to the
quiet ‘A’
section at m. 9,
featuring violin 1 with a
singing, lyrical
melody.The robust, joyous
‘B’ section
is played with intensity,
but still legato. The
return to the
‘A’ material
at m. 37 features the
Cello. The 2nd statement
of the ‘B’
material at m. 45 is
highlighted by a
refreshing tonal shift to
the key of E then back to
the key of
‘G’ before
the crescendo to the
fermata in m. 58.The
active cello theme from
the introduction returns
in the A Tempo section at
m. 59 at a piano dynamic.
This begins the build to
the maestoso section at
m. 71. Measures 63-70 are
the most aggressive bars
of the composition.
Strive for rhythmic
precision when
approaching the quintal
harmony in m. 63-64, the
accented figures in m.
65-67, and the triplet
figures in m. 68-69. A
rich, resonant tone from
the full ensemble will
make the maestoso section
in m. 71 move powerfully
to the final bar.

Moonlight
Shadows is a passionate
and colorful piece for
strings that explores the
expressive power of the
string orchestra. Sean
O'Loughlin uses a lush
harmonic palette and
variety of texture
(including a short
pizzicato section), to
create an important and
soulful addition to the
repertoire for younger
string ensembles.
Duration:
2'30. Moonlight
Shadows is a work for
string orchestra that
reflects my great love
for the music of Samuel
Barber. His compositions
from the 1930s and 1940s
were characterized by
plush harmonies, flowing
melodies and engaging
suspensions. These
elements are what I
focused on in the
composition
of Moonlight
Shadows.The material
represents my mood and
feelings when I look at a
big, bright moon. The
shadows it casts create
an eerie feeling, while
at the same time
providing a deep, rich
tapestry for the earth at
night.The harmony
features many major
seventh-chords with
half-step suspensions.
These suspensions
function as common tones
to the next chord and
create the tension of the
piece. They also move, in
order to provide
resolution to the piece
which allows the listener
to rest. With this in
mind, these suspensions
should be brought out
during
performance.Moonlight
Shadows is an emotional
piece that allows the
young musician the
opportunity to play with
much expression.

Titled by
the students of J. T.
Lambert Middle School in
East Stroudsburg, PA,
which commissioned the
original version for
band, this brilliant,
heavily accented piece
emphasizes rhythmic
alertness and attention
to dynamic contrasts.
Bold fanfare writing
alternates with lyrical
writing of considerable
warmth and the spiccato
style of playing is
introduced. The title
for Dance of the
Thunderbolts was
suggested by students at
J. T. Lambert Middle
School in East
Stroudsburg,
Pennsylvania. This piece
was originally
commissioned for the
sixth-grade band at the
school in 2003 and has
now been transcribed for
string orchestra. The
students specifically
asked for the piece to be
“a strong powerful
piece with lots of
accents and a strong
abrupt ending.†As
you can see and hear, the
piece contains many of
these aspects. After the
title was suggested I
came up with the
thunderbolt dance section
of the piece first stated
at m. 24. Later during
the compositional process
I decided to frame this
theme with a more lyrical
theme, but one that still
contains the sparkle of
the staccato ostinato
that is layered together
with the elongated theme.
Following the thunderbolt
dance at m.24 is a short
interlude to soften the
sound before a return of
the theme in fragments
traded between different
sections and in different
tessituras. The lyrical
theme returns and is
followed by “a
strong abrupt
ending†as
suggested by the
students. As with all of
my pieces at this level,
the tempo is merely a
suggestion and should be
adjusted slower or faster
to fit the needs of your
students and the
performance situation.It
has been my pleasure to
have the opportunity to
write this piece. I hope
you and your students
enjoy it and find it
useful for your
program.—Larry

perspective of a student.
Making use of a quartet

(either a standard
quartet or an option of
using a second cellist
instead of viola), the

voices of the lonely and

This
lively march comes to us
from one of Holst's most
popular works, the First
Suite in E flat for
Military Band written in
1909. Two contrasting
themes-a crisp, marcato
in D and a lyrical,
legato theme in G-thrill
listeners. The powerful
finale of the march, back
in D, uses both melodies
layered on top of one
another. The lyrical
section features the
cellos and violas and all
parts are
interesting.
