Brass quintet

SKU: P2.60008

Composed by Noah D. Taylor. Chamber music, 20th century. Published by Potenza Music (P2.60008).

Fire Suite was composed over the summer of 2002. The work was premiered at Capital University in the winter of 2003 by the student brass quintet of which Noah D. Taylor was a member. This exciting work is composed in three short movements, each based on a different type of fire. The first movement, called Brimstone, is a harsh movement. The second movement, Candlelight, offers lyrical and soaring melodic lines. The last movement of the Fire Suite is based on the idea of fire burning so hot that the flame turns white. White Flame is a very fast, dance-like movement. The Fire Suite is an exciting and challenging work for brass quintet. Like a roller coaster, the piece has plenty of twists and turns that will excite both the audience and the performers.

Coventry Carol was first performed during the sixteenth century in Coventry, England as a part of the Pageant of the Shearman and Tailors. It was a lament by the mothers of children taken in the Biblical Slaughter of the Innocents. Robert Croo is credited with writing the lyrics in 1534, and the music was written by an unknown composer in 1591. The original manuscript of Robert Croo's poem lasted until a fire destroyed it in 1879. The underlying mixed meter feeling of this arrangement is meant to help the piece build momentum to the third verse to tell the tragic story depicted in the poem. The repeated motif is a descending chromatic scale and can be found throughout all three parts. Teaching a descending chromatic scale from G3 down to D3 will help the basses find their entrances throughout the chorus of the piece. The tenors have the same descending line up an octave in the cued notes starting at m. 49 and can sing in octaves with the basses for practice.  .
