English-German-French-Dut
ch. The composer
writes:On March 11th 2011
a massive 9.0- magnitude
earthquake occurred off
the coast of
north-eastern Japan.I'm
writing these programme
notes barely a week later
and the death toll caused
by the quake and
resulting tsunami already
exceeds 6000, with
thousands of people still
unaccounted for. I have
many friends associated
with many bands
throughout Japan and one
of these, Yutaka Nishida,
suggested I write a piece
to raise money to help
those affected by the
disaster. I was
immediately attracted by
the idea and have
arranged Cantilena (a
brass band piece recently
commissioned by the
Grenland International
Brass Festival, Norway)
for wind band, giving it
a new title tohonour my
friends in the Land of
the Rising Sun.I will be
donating royalties from
this piece to the
Japanese Red Cross
Society Emergency Relief
Fund and am delighted to
say that my distributors,
De Haske, who will
generously also donate
all net profits from
sales of this piece, have
pledged a substantial
advance payment to the
Red Cross so that what
little help this project
generates can be
immediate.It is my
sincere wish that this
'Band Aid' project will
allow wind bands around
the world support the
people of Japan, where
bands are a way of life
for many, in this
difficult time.Philip
Sparke
De
componist schrijft:Op 11
maart 2011 vond er vlak
bij de noordkust van
Japan een enorme
aardbeving - 9.0 op de
schaal van Richter -
plaats.Ik maak deze
werkbeschrijving
nauwelijks een week later
en het aantal doden dat
de aardbevingen de
daaropvolgende tsunami
hebben geëist, komt al
uit boven de 6000,
terwijl er nog steeds
duizenden mensen worden
vermist.Ik heb veel
vrienden die met orkesten
in heel Japan werken, en
een van hen, Yutaka
Nishida, steldevoor dat
ik een stuk zou schrijven
om geld bij elkaar te
krijgen voor hulp aan de
slachtoffers van de ramp.
Ik vond het meteen een
goed idee en ik heb
vervolgens Cantilena (
een brassbandwerk dat ik
recentelijk heb
gecomponeerd voorhet
Grenland International
Brass festival in
Noorwegen) gearrangeerd
voor harmonieorkest en er
een nieuwe titel aan
gegeven, als eerbewijs
aan mijn vrienden in het
land van de rijzende
zon.De royalty's die ik
voor dit werk krijg,zal
ik doneren aan het
Japanse noodhulpfonds van
het Rode Kruis, en ik ben
heel blij dat mijn
distributeur, De Haske,
die eveneens alle
nettowinst op dit werk
zal doneren, bereid is
alvast een grote
vooruitbetaling te doen
aanhet Rode Kruis, zodat
de hulp die uit dit
project voortkomt, hoe
bescheiden wellicht ook,
onmiddellijk in gang
gezet kan worden.Ik hoop
oprecht dat dit 'Band
Aid-project' het
blaasorkesten wereldwijd
mogelijk maakt de mensen
in Japante steunen - een
land waar blaasmuziek
voor velen een manier van
leven is.
Der
Komponist schreibt über
sein Stück:Am 11. März
2011 ereignete sich ein
Erdbeben der Stärke 9,0
vor der nordöstlichen
Küste Japans.Diese
Werkbeschreibung schreibe
ich nur eine Woche
später. Die Zahl der
Todesopfer des Erdbebens
und des dadurch
ausgelösten Tsunamis
überschreitet bereits
die 6000, wobei noch
tausende Menschen als
vermisst gelten.Ich habe
zahlreiche Freunde in
Japan, die mit vielen
Blasorchestern im ganzen
Land verbunden sind.
Einer dieser Freunde,
Yutaka Nishida, schlug
mir vor, ein Stück zu
schreiben, um mit dem
Erlös den von der
Katastrophe betroffenen
Menschen zu helfen. Ich
war gleich begeistert von
dieser Idee und habe
daraufhin
Cantilena(ein
Brass-Band-Stück, das
ich jüngst für das
Grenland International
Brass Festival in
Norwegen komponierte)
für Blasorchester
bearbeitet und ihm zu
Ehren meiner Freunde im
Land der aufgehenden
Sonne einen neuen Titel
gegeben.Ich werde meine
Tantiemen für dieses
Stück dem Hilfsfonds des
Japanischen Roten Kreuzes
spenden. Ich bin auch
sehr froh, dass mein
Verlag De Haske, der
ebenfalls alle Erlöse
aus diesem Stück spenden
wird, dem Roten Kreuz
bereits im Voraus eine
bedeutende Summe
geschickt hat, damit der
kleine Beitrag, den
dieses Projekt beitragen
kann, sofort ankommt.Es
ist mein inniger Wunsch,
dass dieses Band
Aid“-Projekt
Blasorchestern auf der
ganzen Welt ermöglichen
wird, den Menschen in
Japan zu helfen, wo
Blasorchester in dieser
schweren Zeit für viele
ein Weg sind, das Leben
aufrecht zu
erhalten.“Philip Sparke

#65279;Le 11 mars 2011,
un violent séisme de
magnitude 9.0 s’est
produit près de la côte
nord-est du
Japon.
J’
cris cette note de
programme tout juste une
semaine après la
terrible catastrophe, et
le nombre de morts causé
par le tremblement de
terre et le tsunami
provoqué par ce dernier,
s’élève déj plus de
6000 personnes, tout en
sachant que des milliers
d’autres sont toujours
portées
disparues.
J
’ai beaucoup d’amis
dans le milieu des
Orchestres Vent au Japon
et l’un d’entre eux,
Yutaka Nishida, m’a
suggéré d’écrire une
œuvre destinée
collecter des fonds pour
venir en aide aux
personnes affectées par
ce cataclysme. Ayant
étéimmédiatement
séduit par sa
proposition, j’ai
écrit un arrangement
pour Orchestre
d’Harmonie de la pièce
Cantilena (une œuvre
pour Brass Band
récemment commandée par
le Grenland International
Brass Festival, en
Norvège), et lui ai
donné un nouveau titre
en hommage mes amis du
Pays du Soleil Levant :
The Sun Will Rise Again
(Le soleil se lèvera
nouveau).
Je
reverserai
l’intégralité des
droits d’auteur de ce
morceau au fonds de
secours de la Croix-Rouge
japonaise. En outre, je
suis ravi d’annoncer
que mon distributeur De
Haske, qui a
généreusement décidé
de donner tous les
bénéfices nets sur les
ventes de cette
œuvre, s’est
engagé effectuer
immédiatement un
versement substantiel la
Croix-Rouge afin que le
Japon puisse profiter
sans délai de l’aide
modeste générée par ce
projet.
J’
espère très
sincèrement que celui-ci
permettra aux Orchestres
Vent du monde entier de
soutenir le peuple
japonais, pour qui la
musique joue un rôle
important,
en ces
temps
difficiles.

La
recente tragedia del
Giappone, messo in
ginocchio dal terremoto,
ha spinto Philip Sparke a
comporre The Sun Will
Rise Again (Il sole
sorger nuovamente), un
brano che vuole essere un
messaggio di solidariet
al popolo nipponico, ma
anche un aiuto concreto:
gli introiti saranno
interamente devoluti, sia

680160684472. 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),

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:

major. Based on our
popular New Bennett Band
Book series, we have
compiled march-style
warm-ups in a separate
publication so they may
be used by all bands
wishing to learn from
them. These innovative
warm-ups and fundamental
drills are the ultimate
method of teaching and
reinforcing the March
style. How To Use the
March Warm-upsPlaying in
a march style can present
difficulties for young
students. The most
prevalent problem is that
students have a tendency
to play every note too
short. Conversely,
accented notes are
usually played
incorrectly with too much
tongue. Do marches
contain short notes?
Absolutely, but these
shortest of notes should
be reserved for notes
that precede an accent or
notes that are
specifically marked with
a staccato. Think of
unmarked notes as being
separated, but not short
and certainly not clipped
or stopped with the
tongue. Accented notes
should be played with
more weight using air and
more length, and not just
a harder tongue. Accents
are given to show
emphasis to a note and
should be thought of in
this manner.The warm-up
exercises provided in
this collection should
give you many
opportunities to stress
the above-mentioned
comments on march
performance style. The
following gives an
explanation on the
purpose and use of each
of these exercises.No. 1
– Basic Chords and
ModulationsOne of the
challenges of playing
marches with young
students is successfully
performing the key change
at the Trio. This
exercise presents the
three basic chords
(tonic, subdominant and
dominant) in each of the
three keys in this
collection of marches.
You can also use this
exercise to teach and
reinforce the style of
accented notes. You may
want to have your band
play major scales in
succession by fourths to
reinforce the concept of
modulation to the
subdominant that occurs
at the Trio (i.e. the
B≤-major scale, then
the E≤-major scale,
then the A≤-major
scale). I might suggest
getting the students to
try continuing the
pattern all the way
around the circle of
fourths.No. 2 – March
Style in B≤ MajorThis
exercise contains many
opportunities to teach
and reinforce the
difference between
staccato and accented
notes. The melody voices
move up and down the
B≤-major scale, while
other instruments play
chords commonly found in
the marches in this
collection. These include
diminished chords,
secondary dominant chords
(i.e. the V of the V) and
other common chromatic
chords that Fillmore
often used.No. 3 –
Cakewalk Rhythm in B≤
MajorThe simple
syncopated rhythm in this
exercise is common to
many marches. This drill
gives you the opportunity
to teach/ reinforce the
standard ar-ticulation
and natural accent of
this rhythmic pattern.
Again, this exercise uses
an ascending and
descending major-scale
pattern as the melodic
basis, accompanied by
chords commonly found in
American- style
marches.No. 4 – The
March Scale in B≤
MajorI call this exercise
“The March Scale,”
because often in marches
(and especially in these
marches) the descending
half-step is part of the
melodic material. These
chromatic figures give
the melodies of many
marches their charm and
flow. Thus, I devised
this exercise and others
like it in E≤ major and
A≤ major to familiarize
students with these
patterns. I would suggest
playing the pattern in a
variety of ways different
from what is written.
Here are some other
possibilities:• Tongue
one, slur three• Slur
two, tongue two• Tongue
two, slur two• Tongue
one, slur two, tongue
oneGradually increase the
tempo to the march tempo
and the articulation
style will fall right
into place.Another
important consideration
is the performance of the
bass line and the
bass-drum part. Too
often, the bass drum and
bass instruments play
their parts with equal
emphasis on both beats in
the measure. This is
incorrect, and frequently
makes the marchNo. 5 –
March Style in E≤
MajorThis is a similar to
exercise No. 2, but with
a different rhythmic
pattern. Emphasize the
difference between
accented and unaccented
notes. Also, play the
exercise with line
direction moving the
musical line forward.
Experiment and play the
exercise with different
dynamic choices and with
hairpins up and down in
different ways.No. 6 –
More March Style in E≤
MajorExercise No. 6
comprises more rhythmic
patterns and harmonic
materials in E≤ major
to teach and reinforce
the march style. This
exercise em-phasizes the
sixteenth-note rhythm, as
notated in the third
measure of the exercise.
Young stu- dents have a
tendency to “crush”
the sixteenths;
consequently, they lack
clarity. It would be a
good idea to work this
rhythmic figure on a
scale pattern with all of
the instruments in the
band as an additional
warm-up exercise.No. 7
– The March Scale in
E≤ MajorSee the
information for No. 4 and
apply it to this
exercise. Use all of the
various articulations
described above as
well.No. 8 – March
Style in A≤ MajorSee
the information for No. 2
and apply it to this
exercise.No. 9 –
Cakewalk Rhythm in A≤
MajorSee the information
for No. 3 and apply it to
this exercise.No. 10 –
The March Scale in A≤
MajorSee the information
for No. 4 and apply it to
this exercise.Other Ideas
for March PerformanceA
rehearsal practice that
has worked very well for
me is to start out by
having the band play the
march very slowly at
about Œ = 60 in a
chorale/legato style. The
slow tempo is a fine
opportunity to work on
clarity of harmonic move-
ment and to work on the
balance and blend of the
tutti band sound. This
will pay great dividends
toward improving the
sound of your band.
Gradually increase the
tempo to the march tempo
and the articulation
style will fall right
into place.Another
important consideration
is the performance of the
bass line and the
bass-drum part. Too
often, the bass drum and
bass instruments play
their parts with equal
emphasis on both beats in
the measure. This is
incorrect, and frequently
makes the march. $70.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

Duration: 14’. In
1803, President Thomas
Jefferson sent Meriwether
Lewis and William
Clark’s Corps of
Discovery to find a water
route to the Pacific and
explore the uncharted
West. He believed woolly
mammoths, erupting
volcanoes, and mountains
of pure salt awaited
them. What they found was
no less mind-boggling:
some 300 species unknown
to science, nearly 50
Indian tribes, and the
Rockies.Ihave been a
student of the Lewis and
Clark expedition, which
Thomas Jefferson called
the “Voyage of
Discovery,” for as long
as I can remember. This
astonishing journey,
lasting more than
two-and-a-half years,
began and ended in St.
Louis, Missouri — and
took the travelers up
more than a few rivers in
their quest to find the
Northwest Passage to the
Pacific Ocean. In an age
without speedy
communication, this was
akin to space travel out
of radio range in our own
time: no one knew if,
indeed, the party had
even survived the voyage
for more than a year.
Most of them were
soldiers. A few were
French-Canadian voyageurs
— hired trappers and
explorers, who were
fluent in French (spoken
extensively in the
region, due to earlier
explorers from France)
and in some of the Indian
languages they might
encounter. One of the
voyageurs, a man named
Pierre Cruzatte, also
happened to be a
better-than-average
fiddle player. In many
respects, the travelers
were completely on their
own for supplies and
survival, yet,
incredibly, only one of
them died during the
voyage. Jefferson had
outfitted them with food,
weapons, medicine, and
clothing — and along
with other trinkets, a
box of 200 jaw harps to
be used in trading with
the Indians. Their trip
was long, perilous to the
point of near
catastrophe, and arduous.
The dream of a Northwest
Passage proved ephemeral,
but the northwestern
quarter of the continent
had finally been
explored, mapped, and
described to an anxious
world. When the party
returned to St. Louis in
1806, and with the
Louisiana Purchase now
part of the United
States, they were greeted
as national heroes.Ihave
written a sizeable number
of works for wind
ensemble that draw their
inspiration from the
monumental spaces found
in the American West.
Four of them (Arches, The
Yellowstone Fires,
Glacier, and Zion) take
their names, and in large
part their being, from
actual national parks in
Utah, Wyoming, and
Montana. But Upriver,
although it found its
voice (and its finale) in
the magnificent Columbia
Gorge in Oregon, is about
a much larger region.
This piece, like its
brother works about the
national parks, doesn’t
try to tell a story.
Instead, it captures the
flavor of a certain time,
and of a grand adventure.
Cast in one continuous
movement and lasting
close to fourteen
minutes, the piece falls
into several subsections,
each with its own
heading: The Dream (in
which Jefferson’s
vision of a vast expanse
of western land is
opened); The Promise, a
chorale that re-appears
several times in the
course of the piece and
represents the
seriousness of the
presidential mission; The
River; The Voyageurs; The
River II ; Death and
Disappointment; Return to
the Voyage; and The River
III .The music includes
several quoted melodies,
one of which is familiar
to everyone as the
ultimate “river
song,” and which
becomes the
through-stream of the
work. All of the quoted
tunes were either sung by
the men on the voyage, or
played by Cruzatte’s
fiddle. From various
journals and diaries, we
know the men found
enjoyment and solace in
music, and almost every
night encampment had at
least a bit of music in
it. In addition to
Cruzatte, there were two
other members of the
party who played the
fiddle, and others made
do with singing, or
playing upon sticks,
bones, the ever-present
jaw harps, and boat
horns. From Lewis’
journals, I found all the
tunes used in Upriver:
Shenandoah (still popular
after more than 200
years), V’la bon vent,
Soldier’s Joy, Johnny
Has Gone for a Soldier,
Come Ye Sinners Poor and
Needy (a hymn sung to the
tune “Beech Spring”)
and Fisher’s Hornpipe.
The work follows an
emotional journey: not
necessarily step-by-step
with the Voyage of
Discovery heroes, but a
kind of grand arch.
Beginning in the mists of
history and myth,
traversing peaks and
valleys both real and
emotional (and a solemn
funeral scene), finding
help from native people,
and recalling their zeal
upon finding the one
great river that will, in
fact, take them to the
Pacific. When the men
finally roar through the
Columbia Gorge in their
boats (a feat that even
the Indians had not
attempted), the
magnificent river
combines its theme with
the chorale of
Jefferson’s Promise.
The Dream is fulfilled:
not quite the one
Jefferson had imagined
(there is no navigable
water passage from the
Missouri to the Pacific),
but the dream of a
continental destiny. $45.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |
