Step right up, ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, step right up! See the exotic, the strange, and the magical at the Cirque de L’étrange, or “Circus of the Strange.” This piece evokes a bygone era when circuses and carnivals provided people from all walks of life a chance to see human and animal oddities. Cirque de L'étrange is an original concert march written in standard march form, but its sound is anything but standard. This piece is playable by younger groups and is a great way to expose students to the march form and style without sounding like your typical march.
Step right up ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, step right up! See the exotic, the strange, and the magical at the Cirque de L’étrange. Welcome to the Cirque de L’étrange, known in English as the “Circus of the Strange.” This piece evokes a time of a bygone era, a time when circuses and carnivals provided people from all walks of life a chance to see human and animal oddities that were sources of both delight and horror. While many of these sideshow attractions were deemed fraudulent, it did not deter the crowds from flocking to be shocked and awed. I have always held a special place in my heart for the showmanship of carnivals, because my grandfather dearly loved them. For much of his life, he worked at fairs and carnivals selling cotton candy and candy apples. A large portion of my days when growing up were spent running around fairgrounds and helping my grandfather with his stand. He imparted in me a love for the cunning, magic, and sheer joy that only carnivals and circuses can bring. In Cirque de L’étrange, I sought to capture the the mirthful, yet uncanny mood of the carnivals that I grew up exploring, thus transporting you to a different time.Cirque de L'étrange is an original concert march written in standard march form, but its sound is anything but standard. This piece is playable by younger groups, as it is a great way to expose students to the march form and style while not sounding like your typical march.Opening in D minor, the piece combines the playful feel of a march and a macabre tango. The second time through the First Strain (mm. 5-23), the upper woodwinds and bells add a second counter melody based in D harmonic minor, which heightens the peculiar nature of the piece. The Second Strain (mm. 24-43) by contrast, is a little more upbeat, thus evoking the magical ebullience of a circus, which is further highlighted by the xylophone part. The Second Strain ends in the key of F major and sets up the transition to the Trio in the key of G minor. The Trio (m. 44) begins with the G harmonic minor melody in the clarinets and a counter melody in the bassoon and tenor saxophone. The rest of the woodwinds and bells join in at m. 60 while the percussion adds a Gypsy-like feel with tambourine and triangle. At m. 76 the full band joins in the macabre parade with the trombones and baritones harmonizing the counter melody. The conclusion of the march has the upper woodwinds, adding a second counter melody complete with trills to bring the march to an exciting and dramatic finish.As the World’s Greatest Showman, P.T. Barnum, a man my grandfather greatly admired, once said “The noblest art is that of making others happy.” It is my hope that through this piece you will experience the thrill, delight, and fright that only carnivals can bring as you visit the Circus of the Strange!

Ray Charles (1930-2004) was a multitalented and pioneering American pianist and soul singer who became very popular in the late fifties, and remained respected for his music in the decades that followed. By incorporating gospel, jazz, blues, and big band elements, he helped shape the sound of rhythm and blues, and brought a soulful sound to everything from country music to pop standards. Ray Charles embodied the American dream, starting out a poor, blind boy from the southern United States and becoming an international music phenomenon; his nickname was “the Genius” for a good reasonIn this arrangement for concert band, Peter Kleine Schaars presents five of the songs thatcontributed to Ray Charles’ fame: I Can’t Stop Loving You, Hit the Road Jack, Georgia on My Mind, Hallelujah I Love Her So, and Unchain My Heart.

Ray Charles, dem Hollywood jüngst mit einer Oscar preisgekrönten Filmproduktion huldigte, ist die Verkörperung des amerikanischen Traums: Vom armen, blinden Jungen aus den Südstaaten wurde er zum internationalen musikalischen Phänomen; seinen Spitznamen Genie trug er völlig zu Recht. In dieser Bearbeitung für Blasorchester präsentiert Peter Kleine Schaars fünf der Lieder, die zu Ray Charles' Ruhm beitrugen.

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 .

Composed by Peter Martin. Arranged by Menno Haantjes. Score Only. Gobelin Music Publications #GOB 000956-140. Published by Gobelin Music Publications (BT.GOB-000956-140).

Scottish Dances is based on three Scottish traditionals: Cock of the North, The Bonnie Bank's O'Loch Lomond and Marie's Wedding.

I. Cock of the North's name is used for multiple things or events. For example for a locomotive to a famous, it seems, delicious liqueur, and rallies to snowboard competitions. Furthermore is Cock O' the North a nickname of a famous Duke. (The 4th Duke of Gordon).
In this composition Cock of the North (a Jig) is a traditional Scottish bagpipe tune, regularly played on tattoos by Pipe Bands. Not infrequently the drummers sing the text.

Auntie Mary, had a canary,
Up the leg of her trousers
While she was sleeping Iwas peeping
Up the leg of her trousers.

II. The Bonnie Bank's O'Loch Lomond is about a sad story that took place during an revolt against the British. In 1745 Bonnie Prince Charlie had to retreat. Two of his men were captured. One was convicted and executed, while the other was released. The spirit of the executed soldier would arrive in Scotland via the 'low road' (underworld) before his companion, who had still a long way to go.

You'll take the high road
And I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the Bonnie Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond

III. In a Scottish wedding, after the official ceremonies, there is often danced. This is called a ceilidh. For this we use traditional Scottish music such as Marie's Wedding '.
Mid dance we go back to the church, where a lovely song in honor of the couple sounds.
Marie's Wedding has been recorded by Van Morrison (among many others).

Step we gaely, on we go, heel for heel and toe for toe
Arm and arm and on we go, all for Marie's wedding

Scottish Dances is gebaseerd op drie Schotse traditionals: Cock of the North, The Bonnie Bank's O'Loch Lomond en Marie's Wedding.

I. De naam Cock of the North wordt voor meerdere dingen of evenementen gebruikt. Van een beroemdelocomotief tot een, naar het schijnt, een heerlijke likeur, en van rally's tot snowboard wedstrijden. Bovendien was 'Cock O' the North' een bijnaam van een bekende hertog. (the 4th Duke of Gordon)
Het in deze compositiegebruikte Cock of the North (een Jig) is een traditioneel Schotse bagpipe tune (doedelzak liedje) wat regelmatig gespeeld wordt op taptoes door Pipebands. Niet zelden zingen de slagwerkers de tekst mee.

Auntie Mary, had acanary,
Up the leg of her trousers
While she was sleeping I was peeping
Up the leg of her trousers.

II. 'The Bonnie Bank's O'Loch Lomond', gaat over een triest verhaal dat zich afspeelde tijdens een opstand tegende Engelsen. In 1745 moest Bonnie Prince Charlie zich terugtrekken. Twee van zijn mannen werden gevangen genomen. Eén van hen werd veroordeeld en geexecuteerd, terwijl de ander vrijgelaten werd. De geest van de geexecuteerde soldaatzou via de 'low road' (onderwereld) eerder in Schotland aankomen dan zijn kameraad, die nog een lange ruige weg te gaan had.

You'll take the high road
And I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland aforeye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the Bonnie Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond

III. Bij een Schotse bruiloft wordt na de officiele plechtigheden vaak gedanst. Dit noemt men een ceilidh. Hiervoor gebruiktmen traditionele Schotse muziek zoals bijv. 'Marie's Wedding'.
Halverwege de dans gaan we nog even terug naar de kerk, waar een lieflijk lied ter ere van het bruidspaar klinkt.
Marie's Wedding is o.a. door Van Morrison opgenomen.

Four unforgettable disco songs come together in one stunning medley. Up fi rst is the 1979 dance floor hit I’m in the Mood for Dancing by The Nolans. Next the medley quiets down with a charming love song, Lovin’ You, a song Minnie Riperton dedicated to her daughter. You Can’t Hurry Love was a huge success for The Supremes in 1966 and Phil Collins repeated their success in 1983 making the song immortal. This exciting medley ends with Olivia Newton-John’s hit-song Xanadu, from her 1980 musical of the same name.

Vier disco-evergreens in één medley voor harmonieorkest. Het begint gelijk al goed! I’m in the Mood for Dancing van de gezusters Nolans uit 1979. In alle windstreken kregen zij met dit nummer mensen de dansvloer op. Hiernavolgt de betoverende lovesong Lovin’ You. Minnie Riperton droeg het in 1975 op aan haar toen tweejarige dochtertje. You Can’t Hurry Love was zowel voor de Supremes in 1966 als voor Phil Collins een geweldige hit. Xanaduvan Olivia Newton-John uit de gelijknamige musical van 1980 besluit deze boeiende medley van Naohiro Iwai. Dat wordt swingen!

Vier Evergreens aus der Disco-Ära in einem Blasorchester-Medley: Den Anfang macht I’m in the Mood for Dancing, mit dem die Geschwister- Combo The Nolans 1979 auf vier Kontinenten die Menschen auf die Tanzflächen jagte. Danach folgt als Ruhepunkt das bezaubernde Liebeslied Lovin’ You, das Minnie Riperton 1975 ihrer kleinen Tochter widmete. You Can’t Hurry Love war in der Originalversion von 1966 für die Supremes ein Riesenhit - Phil Collins wiederholte diesen Erfolg 1983 und machte den Song unsterblich. Den Abschluss von Naohiro Iwais mitreißendem Medley bildet Olivia Newton-Johns Hit Xanadu aus dem gleichnamigen Musical von 1980.

Ce medley tonique, signé Naohiro Iwai, réunit quatre standards des années disco. I’m in the Mood for Dancing, des sœurs Nolan (The Nolans Sisters), ouvre la série. Sortie en 1979, cette chanson a fait bouger des générations de danseurs. La musique s’apaise sur les notes délicieuses de la ballade Lovin’ You, que Minnie Ripperton dédia sa fille.

Four unforgettable disco songs come together in one stunning medley. Up fi rst is the 1979 dance floor hit I’m in the Mood for Dancing by The Nolans. Next the medley quiets down with a charming love song, Lovin’ You, a song Minnie Riperton dedicated to her daughter. You Can’t Hurry Love was a huge success for The Supremes in 1966 and Phil Collins repeated their success in 1983 making the song immortal. This exciting medley ends with Olivia Newton-John’s hit-song Xanadu, from her 1980 musical of the same name.

Vier disco-evergreens in één medley voor harmonieorkest. Het begint gelijk al goed! I’m in the Mood for Dancing van de gezusters Nolans uit 1979. In alle windstreken kregen zij met dit nummer mensen de dansvloer op. Hiernavolgt de betoverende lovesong Lovin’ You. Minnie Riperton droeg het in 1975 op aan haar toen tweejarige dochtertje. You Can’t Hurry Love was zowel voor de Supremes in 1966 als voor Phil Collins een geweldige hit. Xanaduvan Olivia Newton-John uit de gelijknamige musical van 1980 besluit deze boeiende medley van Naohiro Iwai. Dat wordt swingen!

Vier Evergreens aus der Disco-Ära in einem Blasorchester-Medley: Den Anfang macht I’m in the Mood for Dancing, mit dem die Geschwister- Combo The Nolans 1979 auf vier Kontinenten die Menschen auf die Tanzflächen jagte. Danach folgt als Ruhepunkt das bezaubernde Liebeslied Lovin’ You, das Minnie Riperton 1975 ihrer kleinen Tochter widmete. You Can’t Hurry Love war in der Originalversion von 1966 für die Supremes ein Riesenhit - Phil Collins wiederholte diesen Erfolg 1983 und machte den Song unsterblich. Den Abschluss von Naohiro Iwais mitreißendem Medley bildet Olivia Newton-Johns Hit Xanadu aus dem gleichnamigen Musical von 1980.

Ce medley tonique, signé Naohiro Iwai, réunit quatre standards des années disco. I’m in the Mood for Dancing, des sœurs Nolan (The Nolans Sisters), ouvre la série. Sortie en 1979, cette chanson a fait bouger des générations de danseurs. La musique s’apaise sur les notes délicieuses de la ballade Lovin’ You, que Minnie Ripperton dédia sa fille.

Fant asia Nova is a suite comprising two concert marches and a slow, middle movement that derives its themes from both marches. Ragtime (composed in early September, 1978) is a new from old sort of piece. Although its tunefulness and harmonies have an old-fashioned character, its structure, development, and orchestration are unusual for a march. In the chorale section (measures 111 - 148) the band director must be very careful in balancing, for each of the elements must come through. More important is that the audience be brought up by this section -- filled with a joyous exaltation; great attention must be paid to sonority and the band must play earnestly. Ragtime stands on its own and may be performed separately. Dreams (composed in late September, 1978) is the traditional march of the two. It is very closely modeled (in structure only) to Sousa's Stars and Stripes Forever. It even includes a tricky piccolo solo, although the accompaniment has a chorale texture, almost like a school alma mater. This march has a patriotic, inspirational sound, because it was composed for the town of Irondequoit, New York -- for a Town March contest held by the town's community concert band. It did not, so far as I know, become the town's march; one can hear the name, Irondequoit, throughout the Trio, for every turn of the melody (in fact, each group of four notes) fits the accent pattern (Ih-RON-dih-kwoit) of the town's name. Parade stands on its own as a complete work and may be performed separately. Ensemble instrumentation: 1 Piccolo, 6 Flutes, 2 1st & 2nd Oboes, 1 English Horn, 1 Eb Clarinet, 3 1st Bb Clarinet, 3 2nd Bb Clarinet, 3 3rd Bb Clarinet, 1 Eb Alto Clarinet, 2 Bb Bass Clarinet, 1 Eb Contrabass Clarinet (optional), 2 1st & 2nd Bassoons, 1 Contrabassoon (optional), 1 1st Eb Alto Saxophone, 1 2nd Eb Alto Saxophone, 1 Bb Tenor Saxophone, 1 Eb Baritone Saxophone, 3 1st Bb Cornets, 3 2nd Bb Cornets, 3 3rd Bb Cornets, 1 1st Horn in F, 1 2nd Horn in F, 2 3rd and 4th Horns in F, 2 1st Trombones, 2 2nd Trombones, 2 3rd Trombones, 1 Euphonium (Treble Clef), 2 Euphonium (Bass Clef), 4 Tuba, 1 String Bass, 1 Timpani (Triangle), 5 Percussion.

Heart in Motion compares the development of an ensemble to a tree, which-with careful nurturing-grows branches, twigs, leaves and fruit. As a fertilizer, you need to add an extra helping of positive attitude, enthusiasm and passion to it.Inspired by these images and concepts, Satoshi Yagisawa has composed Heart in Motionwhich, with a magnificent fanfare followed by a warm-sounding chorale, certainly lives up to its name.

De opdracht voor dit werk luidde om de totstandkoming van een blaasorkest te verklanken. Afgezien van concrete zaken komen bij de ontwikkeling van een succesvol muziekgezelschap natuurlijk ook een positieve instelling, enthousiasme en passie kijken.Deze beelden en begrippen inspireerden Satoshi Yagisawa tot het componeren van Heart in Motion, dat met een schitterende fanfare, gevolgd door een warm klinkende koraal, zijn titel eer aandoet.

Die Entwicklung eines Blasorchesters ist wie ein Baum, dessen Stamm Äste, Blätter und Früchte hervorbringen kann. Neben diesen sichtbaren Merkmalen gehören zum Wachstum eines Ensembles auch Hingabe, Begeisterung und Leidenschaft. Von diesen Metapherninspiriert komponierte Satoshi Yagisawa ein Werk, das mit einer strahlenden Fanfare, gefolgt von einem warm klingenden Choral, seinem Namen alle Ehre macht.

Heart in Motion (Cœur en mouvement) est une œuvre qui porte bien son nom car elle évoque l’arbrisseau de la forêt, qui, petit petit, pousse et grandit pour produire des brindilles, des branches, des feuilles et des fruits. Satoshi Yagisawavous invite développer vitalité, dynamisme, énergie et puissance. Quoi de plus naturel que d’associer cette extraordinaire production l’épanouissemen t de votre orchestre !

Quando gli è stato affidato l’incarico di comporre Heart in Motion, è stato chiesto a Satoshi Yagisawa di descrivere “la vita” di una banda, ma metaforicamente di paragonarla ad un albero con il tronco, i rami, le foglie e i frutti. Nellamusica non potevano mancare accenni ad un approccio positivo, all’entusiasmo e alla passione. Il risultato non poteva che essere un brano coinvolgente, che inizia con una luminosa fanfara seguita da un caldo corale.
