The song
Bist du bei mir,
geh’ ich mit
Freuden zum Sterben und
zu meiner Ruh’
(BWV 508) was composed by
Johann Sebastian Bach for
his second wife Anna
Magdalena (1701-1760),
who he married in
1721.The popularity of
this song is probably due
to the magnificent,
sensitive melody that
fits wonderfully with the
text, in which a loved
one is told that even
death is beautiful
“as long as you are
there with me.â€
This beautiful
arrangement by Jacob de
Haan is suitable for use
in any
concert.

A
stunning and
heart-wrenching
composition based on the
Jewish folk son Shlof,
Mayn Kind. You can
hear the emotional
content pour out of this
piece written in memory
of an outstanding
orchestra director. The
piece beginnings with
original material to set
the tone, followed by
a clarinet solo on the
song. It then develops
through a variety of
different harmonic
presentation before
building to a nice key
change and climatic
moment. The piece ends as
it began, but with a more
hopeful tone. An amazing
piece. Sleep, My Child
was commissioned by the
Madison Middle School
Band and Orchestra in
Tampa, Florida, and is
dedicated to the memory
of their Director of
Orchestras Kevin Frye.
Director of Bands Chris
Shultz championed the
commissioning of this
piece to honor Kevin
after he passed away in
December 2016. Mr. Frye
was a beloved member of
the staff at Madison
Middle as well as the
music community of Tampa
and the state of
Florida. I was a
personal friend of
Kevin’s. We were
in several musical groups
together when we were
young that were formative
to both of our musical
careers. I also guest
conducted his Madison
Middle School Orchestra
several times over the
past four years. His
musicianship, teaching
skills and love for his
students were
exemplary.When taking on
the challenge of writing
a piece to honor
Kevin’s legacy,
Mr. Shultz and I decided
to try and include
several important aspects
of Kevin’s life
into the piece. Kevin was
proudly Jewish, a
fantastic trumpet player
and loved Jazz. With that
in mind, and after a lot
of research, a Jewish
folk song Shlof, Mayn
Kind was selected as the
basis for the piece, not
to be religious, but to
honor his faith and
heritage. Plus it is a
beautiful song, and I
felt the title reflected
the sentiment I was
looking to express, which
is of someone taking rest
after a long battle with
illness. Thus, a lullaby
seemed appropriate.I also
wanted to incorporate
Jazz into the piece, but
in a concert setting, so
you will hear as the
piece develops, the
harmonies of the folk
song expand into ones
found more commonly in
Jazz compositions. Not
in a far out way, but in
a subtle way to again
honor this part of his
life. For example the
climactic moment of the
piece at the fermata in
m. 57 is a Dbmaj9#11
chord. It appropriately
give the piece the angst
that I was looking for at
this moment in the piece,
while honoring the
importance of Jazz in
Kevin’s musical
life.The piece was also
conceived to include both
the Madison band and
orchestra in the
performance at the
premiere. I wanted the
pieces to work separately
by the band and
separately by the
orchestra, but I also
wanted them to be able to
play the piece together
to honor Kevin.The piece
begins with original
material designed to set
the mood of the piece
with a tempo/style
marking of pensive, but
also as material that I
used as connective
musical tissue between
statements of the folk
song. After this
introduction, the folk
song is presented by a
solo violin (or clarinet)
with orchestral
accompaniment in a simple
straight forward
presentation of the song.
This is followed by a
woodwind section
statement of the folk
song accompanied by muted
trumpets. During this
presentation the harmony
starts to expand with
more color notes in the
chords. The low brass are
added half way through
this statement to add
depth and lushness.The
introductory material
returns, but with some
angry hits in the lower
voices. This leads to a
full ensemble state of
new material that is used
to transition to the
climax of the piece, and
to build tension. After
the build, the piece
modulates to a shortened
statement of the folk
song with more advanced
harmonies and an active
counter line in the
violas, horns, saxes and
first clarinets to
further build the
tension. This tension
is released at the
fermata in m. 57, as
mentioned above. After a
thoughtful pause, the
piece concludes with a
completion of the folk
song again with a solo
violin (or clarinet)
followed by a return of
the introductory material
to tie the piece
together. The piece ends
hopeful, with a solo
trumpet (Kevin’s
instrument) that is
dissonant at first, but
then resolves as if to
say - everything will be
OK! It has been my
distinct honor to have
been asked to write this
piece in Kevin’s
memory! I hope that in
some small way the piece
helps to bring comfort to
his family, students,
colleagues and to all
those that knew
him!–Larry

ESSENTIAL
CLASSICS is a collection
of pieces ideally suited
to introduce beginning
bands, whether in or
outside of school, to the
classical repertoire. The
easy arrangements make
the most popular melodies
of all time accessible to
young musicians, without
the frustration of
playing music that is too
difficult for them. Now
they can enjoy music from
instrumental works and
operas to oratorios and
lieder, from Tylman
Susato to George
Gershwin. The pieces are
arranged in ascending
order of difficulty,
coinciding with the
progress students are
making in Volumes 1 and 2
of ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS the
complete method for music
education in schools and
bands. But even without
ESSENTIALELEMENTS,
ESSENTIAL CLASSICS is an
excellent source of
repertoire by itself. In
addition to the music the
individual parts contain
short snippets of
information about the
music, composer and
genre, written in a style
younger players will
understand. The full
score contains more
in-depth information on
the music. No matter how
you use ESSENTIAL
CLASSICS with your band,
your players will love
all the fun and engaging
arrangements it as to
offer.

Cornish
Coastal Walk is a
beautiful new composition
depicting the majestic
cliffs and coastline of
the Cornwall region in
England. Composer Michael
Miller provides young
bands with an opportunity
to stretch their musical
muscles with this lush
and tuneful piece in 3/4
time. Directors will find
in this piece a strong
vehicle to teach
phrasing, beauty of tone,
and musicianship to young
bands. In the far
southwest of England
reaching out towards the
Celtic Sea is the county
Cornwall. A peninsula,
Cornwall is surrounded by
some of the
world’s most
picturesque scenery
including beaches,
cliffs, and rolling
hills. Separated from the
rest of England by the
river Tamar, the Cornish
take great pride in their
culture including the
pasty (a stuffed pastry
and preferred lunch of
miners), Cornish cream
tea (not to be confused
with rival Devon cream
tea where the cream goes
under the jam), and well
known national heritage
sights such as Rough Tor
(Cornwall’s
highest point), and
Tintagel Castle (rumored
birth place of King
Arthur).In the spring and
summer of 2017, I had the
pleasure to visit
Cornwall, while my wife
was a visiting scholar at
the University of Exeter
in the neighboring county
of Devon. One July
afternoon, while she was
making field observations
(she’s a Cultural
Anthropologist), I
decided to take a stroll
along the cliffs as was
recommended by a friend.
I set out from Boscastle,
a small inlet village
where one can enjoy the
most delicious black
currant ice cream, and I
trekked up and down the
cliffs for three or four
miles before finally
arriving in Tintagel. I
had planned to continue
on to Trebarwith Strand,
home of the fantastic
Port William tavern, but
greatly underestimated
the difficulty of the
terrain.Along my walk I
witnessed some of the
most breathtaking views I
have ever seen. The coast
of this particular region
of Cornwall is both
majestic and peaceful. It
is frighteningly
powerful, but also loving
and kind. It is the type
of place where people
have for years looked out
over the sea longing for
their loved ones to
return. I hope this music
brings you the same inner
peace I found on my hike
that day.This piece is
dedicated to Neil and his
sidekick Derek, without
whom I might have been
just another tourist.

-Some time ago
Charles Hine, a dear
friend, asked me 'Isn't
it about time you wrote a
Czardas?' It wasn't such
a silly idea. I'd studied
violin as a child and
having learnt numerous
show pieces in that style
I felt quite at home with
the genre. Later in my
youth I was lucky enough
to work occasionally as
accompanist to a lovely
lady & singer Eve
Boswell, who was partly
Hungarian, and was
generous enough to give
me further insight into
the nature of Czardas.
Whilst the Wind Ensemble
is not the
instrumentation one might
expect for such a piece
the form is traditional,
albeit rather more
long-winded than some of
the fiddle 'lollypops'.'

Nordanvind
is a tour de force
symphonic rhapsody that
is built on three
Scandinavian folk songs.
Composer Carl Strommen
has composed these
Viking-influenced
melodies into a concert
setting that brings out
all of the history of the
Scandinavian people. The
piece is at times bold
and aggressive, at other
times beautiful. Carl
employs all of the
instrumental colors of
the concert band to
create a new work for
more advanced
ensembles. Modern
Scandinavians are
descendants of the
Vikings, an adventuresome
people who were known for
their love of the sea,
their naval prowess, and
as fierce fighters . The
Scandinavian Vikings were
warriors from Denmark,
Norway, and Sweden who
traded, raided and
settled in various parts
of Europe, Russia, the
North Atlantic islands,
and the northeastern
coast of North America
.Starting around 1850,
over one million Swedes
left their homeland for
the United States in
search of religious
freedom and open farm
land . Augustana College
was founded in 1860 by
graduates of Swedish
universities and is
located on the
Mississippi River in Rock
Island, Illinois . Home
of the
“Vikings,â€
Augustana College is the
oldest Swedish- American
institution of higher
learning in the United
States . This powerful
and lively piece takes
inspiration from Swedish
history and from Swedish
folk songs and hymns
.Havsdrake (Dragon of the
Sea)The Nordanvind or
“North Windâ€
blows a cold wind during
a journey of a group of
courageous Viking rowers
. The
“Dragon-shipâ€
or long ships designed
for raiding and war was a
sophisticated, fast ship
able to navigate in very
shallow water . To
musically portray these
magnificent seafaring
vessels, the director is
encouraged to use an
Ocean Drum (or a rain
stick) during the
introduction . Wind
players may consider
blowing air through their
instruments to suggest
the North wind . Adding
men’s voices to
accompany the haunting
low brass and percussive
“rowerâ€
sounds can be helpful in
creating the dark and
ominous portrayal of
Viking adventurers
.Slangpolska efter Byss -
KalleIn Sweden, a
“polska†is a
partner dance where the
dancers spin each other
(släng in Swedish
“to sling or
tossâ€) .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is attributed to
Byss-Kalle, who was a
notable Swedish folk
musician, specifically a
nyckelharpa player .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is a traditional
“polskaâ€
dance song most often
played on the Nyckelharpa
or keyed fiddle and is
commonly heard in pubs
and at festive events
throughout Sweden .
Approximately 10,000
nyckelharpa players live
in Sweden today, and the
Swedish and the American
Nyckelharpa Associations
are dedicated to this
Swedish National
instrument . The director
is encouraged to share
video and audio examples
of the nyckelharpa
playing the original
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle .Tryggare Kan Ingen
Vara (Children of the
Heavenly Father)Tryggare
Kan Ingen Vara Is a
traditional Swedish
melody, possibly of
German roots, and was
believed to be arranged
as a hymn by the Swedish
hymn writer, Karolina
Wilhelmina Sandell-Berg
(1832–1903) . As a
daughter of a Swedish
Lutheran minister, she
began writing poems as a
teenager and is said to
have written over 1,700
different texts . There
are two different
accounts as to the
inspiration for this hymn
. The first story is that
Lina (as she was called)
wrote the hymn to honor
her father and to say
thank you to him for
raising her and
protecting her . A second
belief is of her
witnessing the tragic
death of her father . She
and her father were on a
boat, when a wave threw
her father overboard . It
was said that the
profound effect of
watching her father drown
is what caused Lina to
write the text to this
hymn . Although this is a
treasured song to people
of Swedish descent
everywhere, it speaks to
all people about a father
tending and nourishing
his children, and
protecting them from evil
.SPS71FThe Augustana

Avalonâ€
Long Live the
King is a medieval
fantasy piece depicting
the Isle of Avalon where
the mystical sword
Excalibur of King Arthur
was forged. Composer
Tyler Arcari unearths a
solid piece for young
bands that is both bold
and dramatic. This piece
is sure to spark the
imagination of students
and give them strong
musical content with
which they can develop
their
musicianship. Program
Notes:Avalon–Long
live the King began its
journey as a commission
in honor of a dear friend
and mentor. David Riggs
is one of those band
directors that just seems
timeless. He is a
powerhouse with such a
stacked resume that it is
easy to forget that at
the end of the day he
enjoys taking long bike
rides with his lovely
wife and whittling a
piece of wood just as
much as being a band
director. He has touched
so many lives and
inspired so many people
in our field and beyond.
I was humbled, and
honored, when I was
contacted for the
commission. To David, I
hope that you one day
know how much you mean to
so many people, including
myself.About the
piece:The piece is
written with a little
homage to David’s
long tenure at Avalon
Middle school in Pace,
Florida. He was certainly
treated like a king as
the band director and
rightly so. It seemed
only fitting to add a
little medieval fantasy.
Avalon is a mystical
island in the world of
King Arthur where the
great sword Excalibur was
forged.The piece begins
lyrically with a slow
introduction with melodic
material. This melodic
motive is used throughout
with slight variations
depending on the
instrument voicing etc.
Care should be taken at
m. 10 that the Timpani
roll helps to bridge our
transition from an
exposed section to full
tutti. Care should be
taken so that the tempo
change at m. 19 is brisk
and avoids the low brass
turning into stomping.
Accessories like the
China cymbal and
tambourine can become
overpowering. I recommend
having students think of
these effects as
background in order to
make sure they
don’t POP out. The
dynamic changes at mm.
27-35 should be subito
similar to orchestral
dynamic changes. Avoid
unwritten crescendos in
this section. Measures
60–64 are a great
opportunity to teach
those unwritten dynamics
that make music so
enjoyable as we lead up
to the finale. It was
originally left blank for
some theatrics in the
premiere at
David’s retirement
concert so I know he
would enjoy adding some
Cholesterol as David
