Altho
ugh some stories in Greek
mythology reveal a
different side to his
character, Apollo was
widely regarded to hold a
cheerful personality and
communicating joy through
the music he played on
his lyre. Apollo Arise is
an energetic and spirited
work for band ideal for
opening a concert. The
uplifting and exuberant
melodic material lead the
group on a sonic journey
to capture the joy and
light music can bring to
both the audience and the
performer. Program
NotesAmong the many
stories in Greek
mythology, Apollo holds a
unique place as a complex
Olympian god known for
truth, prophecy, healing,
poetry, plague,
knowledge, light and
music. Although some
stories reveal a
different side to his
character, Apollo was
widely regarded to hold a
cheerful personality and
communicated joy through
the music he played on
his lyre. Apollo Arise is
an energetic and spirited
work for band, ideal for
opening a concert. The
uplifting and exuberant
melodic material lead the
group on a sonic journey
to capture the joy and
light music can bring to
both the audience and
performer. From the
dynamic opening fanfare
to the soaring motifs and
rhythms that follow,
Apollo Arise provides a
wonderful opportunity for
the ensemble to reach for
new musical heights in
their performance! Â
 Rehearsal Notes and
SuggestionsThe opening
twenty-four measures of
the work are important
for the rest of the work
to unfold successfully.
Encourage the ensemble to
play with a unified
articulation style,
maintain a proper
balance, and establish a
consistent tempo through
this section as several
recurring rhythms must be
performed consistently.
Measure 38 features a
trumpet solo, so be sure
that the rest of the
ensemble balances their
line to support the solo
instrument. In the
section that begins at m.
67, there is an optional
solo opportunity for
trumpet and trombone.
Both of these sections
provide nice contrast
against the full ensemble
sections that are present
in the work. The section
at m. 81 includes a
call-and-response section
between woodwind, brass
and percussion groups. Be
sure that as groups
enter, the tempo remains
consistent and that the
winds articulation style
is unified and
complimentary to the
percussion. As the
opening fanfare returns
at m. 101, remind the
ensemble to play with
consistent style, balance
and tempo as they did in
the opening. As the
ensemble begins the part
of the journey with
Apollo at m. 110, the
music contains unique
layers that must work
together to be effective
and set up the material
that begins at m. 127.
Encourage the group to
play so they can hear all
other lines, and allow
their energy to grow into
a focused musical
celebration by the final
note. Thank you in
advance for your support
of this music, and I wish
you and your ensemble
well as Apollo Arise
welcomes the audience to
your concert hall.

Sinfonia
Hungarica is a
three-movement symphony
that depicts the history
of Hungary. All three
movements were inspired
by historical key
figures, wars, and other
important events from
this country. This
symphony is a celebration
of Hungary’s
millennium in 2001.The
final movement is named
after ISTVAN, the King
who introduced
Christianity into Hungary
and who was crowned by
Pope Silvestro II on
January 1, 1001. A rather
solemn start leads to
another war-like passage,
ending with some loud
crashes. This symbolizes
the fact that the body of
the pagan Koppany was cut
into four pieces, and
sent to the four castles
of the country as an
example. After a quiet,
almost
religiousintermezzo, the
National Hymn of Hungary
is introduced. This broad
“grandiosoâ€
ending also has a
symbolic meaning: after
ten centuries, Hungary
has many reasons to look
back on the past with
pride, and to look
forward to the future
with optimism and
confidence.
Die
Sinfonie in drei
Sätzen ist eine
musikalische Schilderung
der Geschichte Ungarns.
Alle drei Sätze haben
bedeutende historische
Persönlichkeiten und
Schlüsselereignisse
aus der Landesgeschichte
- wie etwa Kriege - zum
Inhalt. Das Werk wurde
zuUngarns
Tausendjahrfeier im Jahr
2001
geschrieben.Attila
, König der Hunnen,
oftmals auch die
Geißel Gottes genannt,
ist die zentrale Gestalt
des ersten Satzes; in
seiner musikalischen
Beschreibung sind
Aggressivität und
Grausamkeit, die vonihm
ausgehende Bedrohung und
ihm entgegengebrachte
Furcht spürbar.
Daneben erscheinen das
heroischer klingende
Thema von Buda,
Attilas Bruder, und das
lyrische von Rika,
seiner zärtlich
geliebten Frau. Der
aufpeitschende Schluss
desSatzes ist Sinnbild
für die gefürchtete
Schnelligkeit von Attilas
Truppen, mit der sie ihre
Opfer eingeholt und ohne
Ausnahme getötet
haben.Im Mittelpunkt des
zweiten Satzes steht
Arpad, der
eigentliche Begründer
des ungarischen Staates.
Eineatmosphärisch
klingende Einleitung
beschwört
Emese, die
Großmutter Arpads,
herauf, die im Traum
seine Bestimmung
vorhergesehen hatte. Er
schlug seinen Gegner, den
Prinzen Zalan von
Bulgarien, im Kampf in
die Flucht und gab dem
Land denNamen
Magyarorszag.Das Finale
ist nach Istvan
benannt, dem König,
der in Ungarn das
Christentum einführte
und am ersten Januar 1001
durch Papst Sylvester II.
gekrönt wurde. Ein
feierlicher Anfang leitet
über in einen an
Kriegsgetümmelerinnern
den Abschnitt, der in
lärmendem Getöse
endet. Es steht für
das Ende des Heiden
Koppany, dessen
Körper gevierteilt und
als abschreckendes
Beispiel an die vier
Burgen des Landes gesandt
wurde. Ein ruhiges,
beinahe religiös
wirkendesZwischenspiel
mündet in die
ungarische Nationalhymne.
Dieser prachtvolle, mit
grandioso
überschriebene Schluss
hat auch eine symbolische
Bedeutung: Nach zehn
Jahrhunderten hat Ungarn
guten Grund, mit Stolz
zurückzublicken und
der Zukunft mitZuversicht
und Optimismus
entgegenzusehen.Die
wunderbare Melodie der
Nationalhymne erscheint
in der Sinfonie auch
vorher schon immer
wieder, wird meist aber
ganz oder teilweise
überdeckt. Sie
durchläuft das Werk
wie ein roter Faden, der
anfangs kaumwahrzunehmen
ist und erst im Verlauf
der Sinfonie immer
deutlicher wird. Am Ende
krönt sie das Werk in
einer letzten
prachtvollen Steigerung,
in der das Orchester den
majestätischen Klang
einer Orgel
annimmt.
Sinfonia
Hungarica,
commissionata dalla banda
ungherese di
Kiskunfelegyahaza, è
dedicata al maestro
Ferenc Jankovski, al
sindaco della citt Jozsef
Ficsor e a Gabriella
Kiss. La prima mondiale,
eseguita dalla banda
Kiskunfelegyhaza si è
tenutaa Budapest il 31
marzo 2001 sotto la
direzione del
compositore.Gli eventi
salienti della storia
dell’Ungheria,
come le guerre ed altri
avvenimenti importanti,
sono tradotti in musica
in questa sinfonia
strutturata in tre
movimenti. Sinfonia
Hungaricavuole anche
essere un omaggio allo
stato ungherese che
festeggia il suo
millennio nel
2001.ATTILA, re
degli Unni, spesso
chiamato “il
flagello di Dio“
è la figura centrale
del primo movimento,
caratterizzato dalla
paura, dalla
minaccia,dall’aggr
essione e dalla crudelt .
Buda, fratello di Attila
è associato ad un tema
più eroico, mentre
Rika, l’amata
moglie, è
rappresentata da una
melodia lirica.
L’eccitante finale
di questo movimento di
apertura illustra la
tanto temuta velocit
delle truppe di Attila
che seminavano paura e
morte.Il secondo
movimento pone
l’accento su
ARPAD, il
fondatore dello Stato
ungherese. Inizia con un
passaggio in stile
atmosferico che evoca la
nonna di Arpad, Emese che
aveva sognato e
predettoil futuro del
nipote. Uno degli
oppositori di Arpad, il
principe bulgaro Zalan,
fu cacciato dopo una
battaglia. In seguito,
Arpad chiamò
ufficialmente il
territorio
“Magyarorszagâ€
.Il movimento finale
prende il nome da
ISTVAN, il re che
portòil cristianesimo
in Ungheria e che fu
incoronato da Papa
Silvestro II il 1
gennaio, 1001. Un inizio
solenne prelude ad un
passaggio bellico
accentuato da rumori
imponenti; questo a
simboleggiare
l’atroce fine del
pagano Koppany il cui
corpo futagliato in
quattro pezzi e inviato
ai quattro castelli del
paese come monito. Dopo
un intermezzo quieto,
quasi religioso, viene
presentato l’Inno
nazionale ungherese. In
questo ampio e grandioso
finale riecheggia
l’orgoglio
dell’Ungheria
nelricordare il suo
passato e la fiducia con
la quale si proietta al
futuro.Lo stupendo tema
dell’Inno
nazionale ungherese è
proposto nell’arco
dell’intera
sinfonia. E’
però spesso
parzialmente nascosto e
usato come filo
conduttore, appena
riconoscibileall’i
nizio ma sempre più
ovvio quando la sinfonia
si avvicina al suo
finale. A conclusione
della sinfonia, il
sublime inno conduce la
banda in
un’apoteosi
finale, facendo apparire
l’organico
strumentale come un
maestoso organo.

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.

Max Steiner was born in

He was a student of the

Music, having among his
teachers Gustav Mahler.
In 1936 he signed an

Steiner, considered the
father of symphonic music
in Hollywood style. One
of his most famous and
popular masterworks is,
without any doubt, Gone

movie was an immediate
success and won ten
Academy Awards. In spite

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

Festi
val March is presented in
a new edition arranged by
Richard Summers. It is a
tour de force composition
for advanced bands and
hearkens back to a bygone
era during the golden age
of the band movement.
Directors and students
will hear operatic music
from composer Victor
Herbert who is best known
for his Christmas
classic, Toyland. This
is a richly scored
masterpiece that deserves
to return to standard
status in concert band
repertoire. We are proud
to bring you this new
setting of this cherished
classic. About the
CompositionFestival March
by Victor Herbert was
written for the
Pittsburgh Symphony and
first performed under
Herbert’s
direction in Chicago on
Dec. 9, 1901 celebrating
the 12th anniversary
of Chicago’s
Auditorium Theatre. Also
known as the Auditorium
Festival March, he
included it many times
for programs of a
festival nature. The main
theme Auld Lang Syne, a
famous Scottish folk
song, is incorporated
many times along with
brass fanfares,
interludes and march
melodies. This band
arrangement is very
similar to the original
orchestral composition.
The missing string parts,
the addition of the
saxophone section and
other band instruments,
editing of the
superimposed triplets
against
sixteenth notes, to
one or the other, and
articulations suitable
for the band, were major
challenges. The style of
early twentieth-century
American music is
captured here. This
arrangement will give
band musicians access to
a fine piece of music
that could only be
appreciated by orchestra
musicians up to now.
Although suitable for
many occasions, this
piece is a great way to
begin or end a December
holiday concert.
 Notes to the
ConductorVictor
Herbert’s music
can be interpreted in a
romantic style, which is
the conductor’s
responsibility to read in
nuance and musicality.
The beginning and other
triple-tonguing sections
of this piece have a
March of the Toys quality
to it. Â The interludes
and Auld Lang Syne
sections are legato and
musical. The March
sections can also be
shaped musically.About
the ComposerVictor
Herbert was born in
Ireland in 1861 and
raised in Germany. When
he moved to America in
1886, he joined the
Metropolitan Opera as
principal cellist and
eventually composed many
works including
forty-three operettas
on Broadway from the
1890s to World War I,
including Naughty
Marietta and Babes in
Toyland. Victor Herbert
conducted the Pittsburgh
Symphony from 1898 to
1904 and then was the
conductor of his own
Victor Herbert Orchestra.
He formed ASCAP with a
group of composers in
1914 and was the director
until his death in 1924.
Among his thirty-one
compositions for
orchestra, Festival March
was a favorite of his and
was eventually published
by Carl Fischer Music.

Tarta
n Tapestries is an
original piece that sets
out to emulate Scottish
folk music. Composer
Larry Clark has created a
concert overture in
triple meter to capture
the essence of music from
Scotland. After a lilting
first section, lush
and beautiful moments
weave a tapestry of
sounds with the lyrical,
middle section of the
piece. There is an
optional part for
bagpipes, and an optional
ending should you chose
to use this instrument as
part of the piece. Alert
your contest music
committee about this
strong new piece for
advancing
groups. Tartan
Tapestries was
commissioned by Friends
of the Arts for the Saint
Andrew's School Band in
Boca Raton,
Florida. The band
program at Saint
Andrew’s School is
under the direction of
Andrea Wolgin. The
premiere took place on
November 29, 2017.When I
was asked by their
conductor Ms. Wolgin to
write a piece for the
Saint Andrew’s
School, I asked her what
kind of involvement she
wanted the students to
have in the process. We
discussed several options
for having the students
involved in the process
of creating with the type
of piece they wanted.Â
We set up a
“Skypeâ€
meeting with members of
the band to discuss the
piece. During this
discussion, the consensus
of the students was that
they wanted a piece
depicting the Scottish
influence to the
school. They also
wanted a piece that would
challenge all sections of
the band and to include
bagpipes if possible. I
asked that the students
be involved in helping to
name the piece once it
was completed, for which
they agreed and were very
helpful. Armed with
this information, I set
out to compose a piece
for them, and Tartan
Tapestries is the
result.The piece begins
with a fanfare gesture
based upon rhythms and
harmonies that appear
throughout the piece. I
chose the lilting triple
feel to the piece, to
bring about the Scottish
flavor. I wanted the
fanfare to be bardic
sounding, to depict the
strength of the Scottish
people and for the piece
to have a dynamic
opening. The fanfare
contains material that
alludes to the main theme
and with a bit of
dissonance and tension
that is resolved in the
main body of the
piece.The main theme is a
lilting original melody,
but one that I hope with
have the essence of
Scottish folk songs. The
main idea is followed by
a more modal and dark
sounding secondary theme,
first stated in the
horns. This material
is later used in the
development section of
the piece. The main
theme returns several
times, with different and
varied orchestrations and
harmonic treatments. This
is followed by a short
transition leading to the
more lyrical and slower
second section of the
piece. A transparent
presentation of the
lyrical theme, which is
based on aspects of the
main theme, is presented
first by a solo flute.
This section is a nod to
famous composer Malcom
Arnold’s wonderful
works for orchestra in
its style and
orchestration. After a
transition or bridge
section with a solo
euphonium, the piece
builds to a dramatic
climax of the lyrical
theme by the full band.
This subsides to a return
of the solo flute to end
this second section of
the piece, followed by a
transition back the main
theme.The solo bagpipes
play a central role in
the return of the main
theme and take center
stage after being heard
in the distance earlier
in the work. The piece
brings back a shortened
version of the darker
secondary theme, followed
by a hint of the fanfare
material that builds to
one last statement of the
main theme by the full
band, before leading to a
dramatic coda to complete
the work.It has been my
pleasure to have been
given the opportunity to
compose this piece for
the Saint Andrew’s
School Band! I thank
Andrea Wolgin for making
it happen, and I hope
that you enjoy it as much
as I have enjoyed
bringing the piece to

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

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
would say.Long Live the
King!

gave the premiere as part
of a 30th anniversary
concert on November 8th

traditionalmarch form,
Guardians of the
Waves opens with a
short introduction, which
leads to the main theme,
played initially by the
brass and then repeated
with a florid woodwind
descant. The theme is
extended and morphs into
asecond theme, first
played tutti and then
quietly repeated by
bassoon, tenor sax and
euphonium. This leads to
a conventional
‘bass
strain’, played
twice with varying
accompaniments. A quieter
trio section follows,
delicatelyscored and
featuring the tenor
instruments of the band.
Taken up by the full
band, this leads back to
a recall of the
introduction and a return
to the main two themes,
which lead to a triumphal
close.

een weelderige discant in

voortgezet en gaat over
in een tweede thema,
eerst tutti gespeeld en
rustig herhaald door
fagot, tenorsax en
eufonium. Dit thema voert
ons mee naar een
conventionele baslijn,
die twee keer wordt
gespeeld metvariërende
begeleiding. Daarna volgt
een kalmer triogedeelte,
dat delicaat is getoonzet
en waarin de
tenorinstrumenten van het

Inspi
red by the memory of an
influential music
educator, Carol Brittin
Chambers has woven a
multitude of grooves,
colors, and uplifting
themes into To Create a
Voice. Chambers has
attempted to convey
distinct moods and
emotions that this
educator tried to instill
in his students. In honor
of this dynamic teacher,
you will hear Hot
Cross Buns cleverly
placed throughout the
composition. To Create
a Voice was commissioned
by the Valley Concert
Band in Stockton,
California. The piece
premiered in October
2017, in memory and
celebration of Chris
Anderson, a local
musician and
educator.When writing
this piece, I tried to
convey certain moods and
emotions throughout:
soulful at the beginning
with calm woodwind chords
and solo trombone;
increased energy
throughout the various
sections of the piece;
exploration of different
grooves and colors; an
uplifting, emotional
ending that leaves the
listener with a sense of
how positive and loving
Chris was.This piece is
largely inspired by a
specific quote from
Chris:Most people would
consider the sounds
students first make on
their instruments to be
cringe-worthy, but to me
that’s music to my
ears, because
that’s the first
time students put a voice
to their instrument. Over
time those voices become
stronger; they become
clear, more confident,
and get to a point where
they use those voices to
communicate with each
other, and to their
audiences.To relate to
the first notes on the
instrument idea, I used
motifs based on the first
notes most beginners ever
play, do-re-mi, which are
introduced at the
beginning of the piece
with the trombone solo,
Chris’ instrument.
During the section at m.
15, the brass introduce a
chorale that I named
Chris’ Theme while
the woodwinds keep
reminding us of do-re-mi.
Later in the piece (mm.
71 and 79), I use these
notes again, but in
reverse, which becomes a
reference to the first
song most beginners
learn, Hot Cross Buns.
This section is also
meant to portray
Chris’ quirky and
joking side. In mm. 75
and 83, Chris’
Theme presents itself
again a couple of times
in response to Hot Cross
Buns.Toward the end, at
the uplifting moment (m.
97), do-re-mi is heard
again, but this time in
harmony with mi-fa-sol.
This represents the
ultimate satisfaction we
all feel as musicians
when we have finally
progressed enough to play
in harmony with others.
The half-time feeling in
3 at that moment also has
significance, relating
(rhythmically) to those
important three notes
again.I really hope you
enjoy performing and
listening to this piece
as much as I have enjoyed
creating it!
