This outstanding best-seller and important choral work is now available for SSAB and TTBB voices. A cappella vocals build with a “come on up” followed by rhythmic vocals under the hypnotic melody penned by Walter Robinson. Layered under that is the sound of percussion imitating a train and vocal nuances resembling the sound of chains and a train whistle. Incredibly powerful and moving!

Brass Band - Grade 5

SKU: BT.DHP-0920349-030

Composed by Stephen Bulla. Sovereign Series. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 1992. De Haske Publications #DHP 0920349-030. Published by De Haske Publications (BT.DHP-0920349-030).

The inspiration for this piece, commissioned by the United States Army Band, came from the Gulf and its constant presentation to the world as a media event on television. The composer wanted to capture the colour and events of war as they were played out on the television screen. Composed as a single movement rhapsody, the work is framed by the riveting sounds of airborne bombing raids with brass and percussion combining to create a gripping sense of tension.

Stephen Bulla schreef Firestorm, waarvan de première op 27 april 1991 plaatsvond, voor de United States Army Band. De hevige emoties die de Eerste Golfoorlog bij de componist losmaakte, vormden voor hem de aanleiding tot hetschrijven van deze compositie. Hypnotiserende geluiden van bombardementen voeren de boventoon in dit spannende werk, dat in de vorm van een rapsodie werd geschreven.

Mellifluous Samoan lull words, like manulele (bird) and suamalie (sweet), are the basis for this hypnotic lullaby of repeated and recombined pentatonic patterns.

This movement is essentially a surge of enthusiasm, an outpouring of grateful hyperbole from one who's inspired towards one who inspires. Though mostly homophonic, this quick-moving movement will offer an element of challenge to a choir - the reward will be anexciting and engaging piece of music.

When, repulsed by the request, the veterinarian refuses to perform the simple procedure, the husband and wife are forced to kill Poor Bibi themselves in a frenzied, brutal manner: For we soon forget what we do, in the human desperation of doing it.

These three pieces were written to provide the intermediate player with attractive new repertoire that is rewarding to play and listen to. Snake charmers traditionally use a wind instrument to 'hypnotise' their snakes, and in the first piece I imagined a charmer weaving his melody, with the piano suggesting the slow response of the snake (as well as the nasty surprise at the end!). The Arietta is in the style of a Baroque slow movement, and Moonlight Calypso evokes a dance on a Caribbean evening.

The texts of e. e. cummings are thoughtful and provoking. Following suit is this musical setting for a cappella voices and violin. The opening is charmingly hypnotic, preparing the listener's ear to hear the thoughts to come. Just the right amount of dissonance awakens the text and stimulates our senses. The conversation is further enhanced by the violin's expressive interjections. A truly artistic selection for advanced university and community choirs.
