Clash of the Warriors is lightly based upon the Bulgarian folk song Kaval Sviri. The composer's vision was to create a musical depiction of two warriors getting ready and ultimately battling each other. The introduction should be mysterious and ominous. To create the open fifth interval slide effect, the trombone glissandi in measures 2-3 should be emphasized, and the suggested slide positions followed. At Rehearsal 10, the timpani, marimba, and tambourine will control the pulse and diminuendo to Rehearsal 18, where the woodwinds have the melody. Rehearsal 38 should be bold and energetic, whereas Rehearsal 57 should be light with a driving pulse. The Rehearsal 92 9/8 section should be conducted in four (2+2+2+3) and set up the warrior's battle clash. Rehearsal 109 represents the 'clash' of the warriors where they will ultimately battle against one another, represented by the three measure motivic tradeoffs. Finally, rehearsal 129 to the end is the soundtrack for the final conflict for the warriors. I hope you and your ensemble enjoy performing Clash of the Warriors..

This piece is about a journey unlike any other in 2020. We have all been touched by the devastating effects of COVID-19, and we have seen friends, family, and many others succumb to it. For the people who are left behind this piece is dedicated to you, the brave warriors that have survived this pandemic. The piece is set in Eb major with a 4/4 time signature. The beginning starts off robust and full, with the tempo at quarter note= 150. Measure 25 presents many opportunities for shaping to move the melody and counter melody lines around as the ostinato is being played in the percussion and low brass. I wrote mm. 43-51 as a percussion feature. I felt in my eighteen years of experience as an educator that we always have plenty of percussionists! Double students on parts if you have way too many. Overall, this piece has many places for beautiful phrasing and shaping. You will need to assign the students places to breathe in order to achieve maximum effort from the group. I hope you enjoy my new piece The Brave Warrior.
