The violin concerto is commissioned by Friends of Dresden Music Foundation for American soloist Mira Wang and the New York Philharmonic and Staatskapelle Dresden as an American commemoration of the reconstruction of the Dresden Frauenkirche, 60 years after its destruction in World War II by American and British Forces. The world premiere is given at the Semperoper in Dresden, Germany, on October 9, 10 & 11, 2005, conducted by Ivan Fischer. Full of excitement and inner power, the musical image is vivid, energetic, sometimes lyrical and sometimes dramatic. The major angular thematic material (a three note motive) consists of big leaps in interval (a perfect fourth downward and then a minor seventh upward, first introduced by the violin solo in measures 27-29). Except for the cadenzas which stand at the middle (Rehearsal E, measure 127) and the two ends of the piece as a frame, the virtuosic violin solo line is always accompanied by the ever moving and growing textures in the background. The rests between long and short phrases symbolize the space in Chinese paintings. The Beijing Opera reciting tune, and the fingerings to produce sliding tones in the performance of the Chinese fiddle erhu are also borrowed in the writing and the performing of the western instruments. The musical imagination of the violin concerto came from an ancient Chinese poem with the same title, written by Du Fu (712-770) in Tang Dynasty. Happy Rain on a Spring Night by Du Fu (712-770 in Tang Dynasty) Happy rain comes in time, When spring is in its prime. With night breeze it will fall, And quietly moisten all. Clouds darken wild roads, Light brightens a little boat. Saturated at dawn, With flowers blooming the town. (English translation by Chen Yi from the original poem in Chinese) The following is the poem in its original Chinese form, and the detailed introduction on the structural plan of the violin concerto Spring in Dresden. It's like the welcome rain on a quiet spring night that nurtures the budding seeds, our new society is pushing us forward to the new future. The music reflects the scenes and the expression according to the meaning of the poem when it's being unfolded line by line. Although the tempo is set 63 quarter notes per minute throughout (played vividly, never slow down), the tension is being built up from the quiet background in the beginning, to the sustained climax towards the end. The musical image in Rehearsal A and B (measures 39-80) represents the first four lines of the poem. The wind instruments response to the rustling of fast moving notes on muted string triplets, decorated by occasional strokes produced by metallic string sound and high woodwind gestures. The music in Rehearsal C and D (measures 81-126) represents the next two lines of the poem. It's so dark, a little light in the boat is shimmering on the lake... The breathy sound and key slaps on the flutes create a mysterious atmosphere, in a dialogue with other instruments. The cello glissandi recite the poem in the tone of Mandarin, echoed by the string harmonics. The music in Rehearsal F, G and H (m 129-202) is a toccata, starting in the orchestra (led by the marimba), which builds up a big shape, to reach the climax in m. 157 (Rehearsal G, the location of the Golden Section, according to the length of the music without cadenzas), and keeps the vivid scene towards the coda (from Rehearsal I, m. 203), which stands on the energetic peak until the clear cutoff on measure 239, followed by the short, yet powerful solo conclusion with the lingering echo produced by the high string harmonics. On the top, there is a recall of the three note motive in the sound of wonderland, touched by the motor-on vibraphone meaningfully. The music is written for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets (in Bb), 2 bassoons, 4 French horns (in F), 2 trumpets (in Bb), 3 trombones, tuba, harp, 3 percussion players (Perc. 1: xylophone; Perc. 2: suspended cymbal, Japanese high woodblock, snare drum, bass drum and vibraphone; Perc. 3: marimba and tam-tam), solo violin, and strings.

Tuba-euphonium quartet

SKU: P2.80087

Composed by Jack Adler-McKean. Chamber music, 20th century. Published by Potenza Music (P2.80087).

Grant writes, When I began composing Mark My Words, I told Mark to be prepared for something fun that sounded like Charlie Brown doing a funky bossa nova (think jazz pianist/composer Vince Guaraldi's Linus and Lucy). I did not tell him that the middle section of Mark My Words would make overt references to all of the principal shapes, motives and themes from the Three Furies - my way of thanking Mark Nelson, specifically, for opening wide the door of composing for tuba and euphonium those many years ago and for so enthusiastically escorting me over that threshold. I am but one of many grateful composers whom Mark has supported over the years by commissioning, then recording their music. Mark My Words is my humble attempts at giving back to this devoted educator, consummate musician, fervent promoter of new music for tuba, and - yes - kickass player..

Long Live the King. Composed by Tyler Arcari. Young Band (YPS). Full score. With Standard notation. 16 pages. Carl Fischer Music #YPS204F. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.YPS204F).

ISBN 9781491152928. UPC: 680160910427.

Avalo n–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!

ISBN 9790004188484. 9 x 12 inches.

Each piece is based on a motive characteristic of the respective style. For all its simplicity, the composer achieves to keep the musical curiosity alive by little variants in melody and accompaniment. This makes engaging with this music both motivating and instructive. The markings for articulation and dynamic help to achieve a profiled, expressive playing. The fingering, kept to the basics, supports each intended playing gesture and helps with the phrasing. In short: ideal food for piano players of all ages with a little experience.

Each piece represents a different dance type, from Boogie and Blues via Tango through to Techno, but also including ballad-like music.

The Loco-motion was the hippest dance routine to hit the clubs in the 1960s. In contrast to many songwriters who write songs after a trend has taken off , singer/songwriter partners and couple Gerry Goffi n and Carole King wrote the song that kicked off the entire dancesong craze. Little Eva was the fi rst of several artists to reach the top of the US charts with this hit in 1962. Let your band rise to new heights with Hideaki Miuraâ??s funky arrangement!

The Loco-motion was een bijzonder geliefde manier van dansen in de jaren zestig. Gerry Goffin en Carole King waren met hun gelijknamige hit de trendsetter van deze muziek- en dansstijl. Dit in tegenstelling tot wat veel songwritersdoen: pas bepaalde muziek schrijven als het al een trend is. De eerste die het nummer vertolkte was Little Eva en zij scoorde er een nummer één hit mee. Hierna werd de song nog vaak en succesvol gecoverd. En nu is er dusook een lekker vlotte versie voor harmonieorkest van Hideaki Miura.

The Loco-motion war ein Modetanz in den 1960er-Jahren. Entgegen der weit verbreiteten Annahme sprang aber nicht das Songwriter-Ehepaar Gerry Goffin und Carole King mit ihrem gleichnamigen Hit auf diesen Zug auf, sondern sie waren tatsächlich diejenigen, die mit dem Titel den Trend erst auslösten. Nach dem Nr. 1-Erfolg der ersten Interpretin Little Eva wurde der Song oft und erfolgreich gecovert und liegt nun in einer flotten Blasorchesterbearbeitung von Hideaki Miura vor.

Au début des années 1960, le couple dâ??auteurs succès, Gerry Goffin et Carole King, compose la chanson, The Loco-motion, qui sera lâ??origine dâ??un phénomène qui va balayer tous les pays, le locomotion, un twist en ligne avec des mouvements de bras imitant le va-etvient des bielles de locomotives vapeur. Immortalisée aux Ã?tats-Unis par Little Eva, la chanson sera reprise en France par Henri Salvador, puis par Sylvie Vartan, lâ??égérie des années yé-yé. Hideaki Miura en a réalisé un arrangement pour Orchestre dâ??Harmonie, aussi twistant que la version originale.

The Loco-motion è stato un ballo di moda negli anni â??60. Al contrario di molti autori che scrivono canzoni utilizzando trend gi esistenti, la coppia Gerry Goffin e Carol King fu lâ??artefi ce di questo ballo di successo. La prima interprete della canzone fu Little Eva che nellâ??ormai lontano 1962 raggiunse la vetta delle canzoni più vendute. Un tuff o nel passato con questo arrangiamento molto riuscito fi rmato Hideaki Miura.

This setting of The First Noel begins with a percussion intro and dissonant chords that lead to a beautiful flute duet. The melody is freely adapted and at times, outright changed, to give this arrangement a very different sound. Using rhythmic motives, tone clusters, altered melodies and all the sounds available for a concert band, the piece takes the audience on a journey that leads to a statement of the original tune at m. 118. Everyone gets the melody at some point. After a chorale-like section, the composition returns to the fast and upbeat sounds of the beginning. Your musicians and audience will love this unique version of this old-time favorite. When performing this piece, start dark and mysterious and let the sounds crescendo through the introduction all the way to m. 21, the first statement of the hymn. Make sure you keep the tempo moving so the arrangement does not lose excitement. Keep the flute duet, and later the trumpet duet, nice and light. At m. 118, play a little slower and in a standard chorale style, being careful to let the flute and oboe voices be heard. Let the low voices have the reins at m. 126 as they play the melody. Pick the tempo back up to the original tempo at m. 145 and push to the end. The main thing is to match articulation throughout the band--at the beginning and at the end, think light accents and separation, and at the chorale section at m. 118, more legato. Keeping everyone on the same page with articulation will be the key to making a great performance.

The first and third movements are rather straight forward in terms of the specific motives they present along with the intense dialogue between both players that is frequently found among them. The second movement, at least at the beginning, is much more improvisatory in nature, and certain unusual harmonic effects are created as the movement proceeds. All the movements display a kind of rhythmic drive and intensity that can be observed and perceived by an audience with a little bit of curiosity thrown in as well.
