Every
one remembers the first
time that they saw a
snake. Though fascinating
to some and terrifying to
others, few animals are
as universally
mesmerizing. Composer
Tyler Arcari has crafted
a very fun piece making
use of auxiliary
percussion instruments to
emulate a snake's hiss or
ominous rattle. With very
strong and interesting
melodic material, and
scored to make a
developing band sound
great, this piece is sure
to be a favorite among
students. Everyone
remembers the first time
that they saw a snake.
The majority of people
have a base fear of them,
while others have a
“heebie-jeebiesâ
experience. We all
know how the great
explorer Dr. Indiana
Jones felt about snakes,
especially when he
famously fell into a
snake pit during Raiders
of the Lost Ark. However
you feel about snakes, a
pit of them certainly
sounds like an
adventure.About the
work:Snake Pit uses a lot
of auxiliary percussion
instruments. Some of
these sounds are intended
to subtly mimic the
sounds that snakes make.
The maraca in m. 4, of
course, is a
rattler’s call!
The Chinese cymbal is
intended to sound like
the “hiss†of
a not-so-friendly
serpent. The eighth-note
pattern at m. 9 is used
throughout as a
“creepyâ€
effect using dynamic
contrast so take care to
emphasize this when
present.I enjoy the gong
as a “colorâ€
instrument in the band. I
try to balance it with
the low brass. Take care
that at m. 42 the gong is
not “front-and
center†but more of
a support for the nice
accented chords in the
low brass. Also, the
trumpets can become
spaced too much here. The
accents are more for
emphasis and less
space.

Program
Notes Elephant is, of
course, inspired by the
incredible mammals of the
same name. Their
column-like legs, long
trunks, and massive
presence will never cease
to amaze; however, it's
their trumpeting that
makes them stand out as
the instrumentalists of
the animal kingdom! In
this selection, an
elephant's slow gate and
general demeanor are
represented by a
methodical tempo and
lumbering texture.
Woodwinds will enjoy the
opportunity to perform
grace notes while
Elephant also offers
exposure to flams for
young percussionists.
At m. 33 the
trumpets and horns
recreate an elephant call
after slipping brown
paper bags, or lunch-bag
mutes, over their bells
(in their bells for horn
players). For the trumpet
players, the mutes can be
enhanced with an
additional balled-up
piece of paper placed at
the bottom of the bag
prior to slipping it over
the bell. Horns should
ball up the bag itself
and experiment with
placement to create the
most realistic tones
without stopping the
instrument. While
specific pitches are
noted, making the best
elephant sounds should
prioritized. Young
students always look
forward to experimenting
with mutes, and this
selection offers an
inexpensive and creative
way to do so at a young
age. Note to the
Conductor This piece can
be used to introduce or
reinforce the finer
points of staccato
playing. While many
students know to play
these notes short in
length, they may need
reminding that they
should also be played
lightly. This also may
allow for opportunities
in emphasizing
contrasting articulation
styles that are in this
piece. Younger students
will likely need a
reasonable amount of
practice in successfully
using the lunch-bag
mutes. Allowing
additional rehearsal time
for this is
recommended. Program

Roya
l Coronation Dances is
the first sequel to the
Fanfare Ode & Festival,
both being settings of
dance music originally
arranged by Gervaise in
the mid 16th-century (the
next sequel is The
Renaissance Fair, which
uses music of Susato and
Praetorius). Fanfare Ode
& Festival has been
performed by many tens of
thousands of students,
both in high school and
junior high school. I
have heard that some of
them are amazed that the
music they are playing
was first played and
danced to over 400 years
ago. Some students tend
to think that music
started with Handel and
his Messiah to be
followed by Beethoven and
his Fifth Symphony, with
naught in between or
before of consequence.
Although Royal Coronation
Dances is derived from
the same source as
Fanfare Ode & Festival,
they are treated in
different ways. I
envisioned this new suite
programmatically -- hence
the descriptive movement
titles, which I imagined
to be various dances
actually used at some
long-ago coronation. The
first movement depicts
the guests, both noble
and common, flanked by
flag and banner bearers,
arriving at the palace to
view the majestic event.
They are festive, their
flags swirling the air,
their cloaks brightly
colored. In the second
movement, the queen in
stately measure moves to
take her place on the
throne as leader and
protector of the realm.
In the third movement,
the jesters of the court
entertain the guests with
wild games of sport.
Musically, there are
interesting sonorities to
recreate. Very special
attention should be given
to the tambourine/tenor
drum part in the first
movement. Their lively
rhythms give the movement
its power. Therefore they
should be played as
distinctly and
brilliantly as possible.
The xylophone and
glockenspiel add clarity,
but must not be allowed
to dominate. Observe
especially the differing
dynamics; the intent is
to allow much buzzing
bass to penetrate. The
small drum (starting at
meas. 29) should be
played expressively, with
attention to the notated
articulations, with the
brass light and detached,
especially in a lively
auditorium. It is of some
further interest that the
first dance is extremely
modal. The original is
clearly in G mixolydian
mode (scale:
G-A-B-C-D-E-F-G).
However, other editors
might put in F-sharps in
many places (changing the
piece almost to G major),
in the belief that such
ficta would have been
automatically put in by
the 16th-century
performers as they
played. I doubt it. I
have not only eschewed
these within the work,
but even at the cadences.
So this arrangement is
most distinctly modal
(listen to the F-naturals
in meas. 22 and 23, for
instance), with all the
part-writing as Gervaise
wrote it. In the second
movement, be careful that
things do not become too
glued together. In the
16th century this music
might have been played by
a consort of recorders,
instruments very light of
touch and sensitive to
articulation. Concert
band can easily sound
heavy, and although this
movement has been scored
for tutti band, it must
not sound it. It is
essential, therefore,
that you hear all the
instruments, with none
predominating. Only when
each timbre can be heard
separately and
simultaneously will the
best blend occur, and
consequently the greatest
transparency. So aim for
a transparent, spacious
tutti sound in this
movement. Especially have
the flutes, who do this
so well, articulate
rather sharply, so as to
produce a chiffing sound,
and do not allow the
quarter-notes to become
too tied together in the
entire band. The entrance
of the drums (first
tenor, then bass) are
events and as such should
be audible. Incidentally,
this movement begins in F
Major and ends in D
Minor: They really didn't
care so much about those
things then. The third
movement (one friend has
remarked that it is the
most Margolisian of the
bunch, but actually I am
just getting subtler, I
hope) again relies upon
the percussion (and the
scoring) to make its
points. Xylophone in this
movement is meant to be
distinctly audible.
Therefore, be especially
sure that the xylophone
player is secure in the
part, and also that the
tambourine and toms sound
good. This movement must
fly or it will sink, so
rev up the band and
conduct it in 1 for this
mixolydian jesting. I
suppose the wildly
unrelated keys (clarinets
and then brass at the
end) would be a good
16th-century joke, but to
us, our
put-up-the-chorus-a-half-
step ears readily accept
such shenanigans.

A
contrast between heroic
trumpet melodies and
lyrical woodwind lines
highlight this effective
new composition from Alan
Lee Silva. Bands will
sound their best and love
doing it with this
distinctive new piece
that is suitable for
concert or
contest. Staccato
brass figures along with
woodwind trills and runs
highlight the powerful
opening of Legend of the
Lake. The trumpet states
the heroic main theme at
m. 10. The dynamics
soften in m. 18 for a
lyrical flute solo,
playing the B-melody. The
full woodwind section is
featured at m. 26 in a
reprise of the B-melody.
The trumpets proclaim the
A-melody again at m. 34
with full band
accompaniment, plus
woodwind fills and
background lines. The
interlude at m. 42
features each section of
the band independently as
well as the entire
ensemble in concerted
rhythms.The reiteration
of the introduction
material at m. 49 builds
to a slow maestoso
treatment of the A-theme.
A short contrapuntal
interlude, featuring
woodwinds at m. 61, leads
to an ending statement
with the complete group
at m. 66. Measure 68 is a
percussion feature that
builds to the explosive
final tonic chord and
staccato unison
ending.

The

medley of beautiful
melodies from the Studio
Ghibli film Princess
Mononoke (1997, dir.
Hayao Miyazaki), arranged
for concert band in the
series: New Sounds in
Brass (NSB). Grade 3;
Duration: approx.8'50;
Composed by Joe Hisaishi;
Arranged by Takashi
Hoshide. Arranger Takashi
Hoshide says, I have
selected beautiful
melodies from the
soundtrack of 'Princess
Mononoke' (1997, directed
by Hayao Miyazaki) and
arranged them into a
medley. What can be said
about these songs as a
whole is that they
combine a grand
continental scale with
the delicacy that
reflects Japanese
emotions. Since there are
no upbeat songs in this
selection, I had to work
hard on the arrangement,
but this allowed for
creating contrasts and
transitions between each
scene in the performance.
'Ashitaka Sekki (English
title: The Legend of
Ashitaka)' - 'Sekki'
means a story that is not
recorded but passed down
orally. In this anime,
this can be considered a
sub-main theme. The song
starts with a feeling
that the story is about
to begin and, once the
theme kicks in, aim for a
grand performance to
convey its scale.
'Encounter' - This is the
music that plays during
the scene where the
protagonist Ashitaka
meets San. Interestingly,
the motif of the main
theme 'Princess Mononoke'
is used in this melody.
Here, let's pursue the
shifts in the timbre of
individual phrases,
creating a beautiful and
aesthetic soundscape.
'Princess Mononoke' -
This is the main title of
the anime. The melody
line is carried by horns
and trumpets.

Cosmi
c Expedition takes
performers on a musical
journey far across the
galaxy via three main
sections. This
fanfare composition would
be perfect for opening a
concert. It has bold
brass fanfare figures
over textural woodwinds
to start and
then takes the
listener on a sonic
journey through a
variation of harmonic
colors, tambural and
textural
shifts. Cosmic
Expedition takes
performers on a musical
journey far across the
galaxy via three main
sections. The first, a
rather celebratory and
triumphant fanfare in Bb
major begins with the
upper woodwinds and
percussion creating a
sound-screen, that is a
busy texture consisting
of a flurry of repeated
notes over which the
horns and alto saxophones
present the opening
theme. The sound-screen
should be carefully
balanced and give way to
the melody at m. 5, which
should be played
extremely marcato. The
timpani solo beginning in
m. 11 must not be
understated. A brief
percussion interlude
separates a restatement
of the opening theme,
this time with the
addition of the trumpet,
tenor saxophone, and
euphonium, and a counter
melody by the low winds.
The percussion interlude
is playful, light, but
full of vigor and energy.
An Ab in the low winds
pulls the harmony towards
G minor in m. 40 to start
the second section, a
more serious fanfare.
Here, the marimba repeats
an ostinato that is
complemented by the bass
drum and woodblock. The
upper woodwinds with the
xylophone and snare drum
dance over the stern
secondary fanfare. A
longing call lead by the
trombones, interrupted by
a subtle snare drum
beckons to the clarinets
and horn who begin the
third section of the
piece at m. 68. This
haunting melody in C
minor is legato, and
starkly contrasts all
which came before it. A
relentless concert
tom-tom played with hard
mallets keeps the
momentum persistent, and
a heartbeat-like pulse is
felt from the tuba and
baritone saxophone. The
melody rises towards m.
84 when the brass harken
back to the fanfare style
before fading back into
another lush woodwind
strain.A recapitulation
of the low winds’
call is heard at m. 100
which in this occasion
intensifies into an
emphatic statement by the
battery percussion
instruments. Now in Eb
major, the opening
fanfare theme is heard
again once more before
fading into the beginning
of the piece’s
conclusion.To end, the
counter melody from the
opening section duels
with chromatic tension
above before swelling to
an arrival in the
original key of Bb major.
The full ensemble
celebrates the
piece’s
resolution, and after a
few crunchy power chords
the journey is
completed.

According to
music critic Mark Azarra,
Leroy Anderson
(1908-1975) was
“one of the four
best composers of
instrumental music in the
20th century, next to
George Gershwin, Aaron
Copland and Charles
Ivesâ€. Many of his
nostalgic songs such as
Sleigh Ride and
Blue Tango are
firmly embedded in the
American popular music
culture. In 1945 at the
request of Roger Voisin,
the principal trumpeter
of the Boston Pops
Orchestra, Anderson wrote
the Trumpeter’s
Lullaby. This version
for concert band by will

The
Sacred Spheres by Tyler
S. Grant is written in
two contrasting
movements. The title of
the first movement, From
Harmony, from heav'nly
harmony..., comes
directly from the first
line of John Dryden's
poem, A Song for St.
Cecilia's Day. The first
few notes musically
depict the beginning of
the universal framework
described in the text
through delicate textures
and orchestrations that
develop as the movement
progresses. The second
stanza of the poem
highlights the capacity
for musical elements to
inspire passion, which is
represented at the climax
of the first movement.
The second
movement, Cries, hark the
foe comes, picks up the
poem from the third
stanza, highlighting the
spectrum of emotions that
can be summoned by
various instruments. The
beginning of the movement
highlights the trumpet's
loud clangor along with
drums that inspire war
and conflict. The
movement transitions to a
section of mourning
through the sound of a
warbling flute. The
ending of the movement
combines the final
stanzas along with the
Grand Chorus to
recapitulate earlier
material and create a
celebratory and impactful
finale.
