This ancient melody has an intrinsic beauty in both its shape and harmonic support. Reflecting those elements, this arrangement also creates an evocative sound world. The mood of this piece is inspired by viewing the expanse of the night sky. Throughout history, we as humans are connected, in a sense, by the fact that we look up at the same pattern of stars today as those who created this ancient tune so many years ago, which suggests a point of connection over time. In this arrangement you will find a sense of wonder and awe as the melody weaves its way between consonance and dissonance, and that the reimagining of an ancient melody in a new setting, also reflects the timeless nature that points of celebration, such as in the Christmas season.

Though not as familiar as other holiday carols, this ancient melody has an intrinsic beauty in both its shape and harmonic support. Reflecting those elements, this arrangement creates an evocative sound world. The mood is inspired by viewing the expanse of the night sky. Throughout history, we as humans are connected, in a sense, by the fact that we look up at the same pattern of stars today as those who created this ancient tune so many years ago, which suggests a point of connection over time. In this arrangement you will find a sense of wonder and awe as the melody weaves its way between consonance and dissonance. The re-imagining of this medieval carol reflects the timeless nature of the Christmas season. Students will work on sustaining long tones and tuning non-traditional chords in this choral-like setting for string orchestra. The melody flows between all the parts with short musical interludes between.

Call of the Ancient Clans takes players back to the time of the dawn of man, when neighboring tribes could communicate with each other not by racing through the harsh jungle or dry desert, but by the use of different rhythm instruments. Music was also used in religious rituals, celebrations and to share the history of the group.With an interesting, pulsating rhythm and catchy woodwind lines, Call of the Ancient Clans is sure to light a fire under students and get them involved in making some exhilarating music. The notes can be easily played by those with over a year of band experience, but will also provide a good challenge, as the first clarinets do go over the break a couple of times.Students will have a lot of fun playing double forte (who doesn’t?). However, caution students that playing “as loud as you can” can lead to bad-sounding notes. Balance with the person next to you; if you can’t hear them, you’re too loud. Double forte is a bit like calling to your friend from across the gym when nobody else is in there. You don’t want to be louder than that.Who has the melody at each rehearsal mark? Your students should know and if they do not, tell them. If they don’t have the melody, they need to back off their notes and play softer. Let the melody shine.Balance will make this piece truly sing. I hope you enjoy playing it; I loved writing it.

Chamber Music Solo Organ

SKU: PR.113400460

Composed by Adolphus Hailstork. 16 pages. Duration 11 minutes, 30 seconds. Theodore Presser Company #113-40046. Published by Theodore Presser Company (PR.113400460).

ISBN 9781491135082. UPC: 680160686308.

Sever al powerful elements combine to create this striking 11½-minute organ solo. In composing for the AGO chapter of Albany, NY, where Hailstork was raised and became a musician, the composer selected the hymn tune Albany, whose text begins with “Ancient of days...” Hailstork’s fantasy on this imposing melody is built as a chorale prelude, following Bach’s method of creating concert works around phrases from a known sacred melody.
