This amazing work opens with the sounds of distant villages as their drumming echoes through the African rain forests (or school gymnasium). As the players return to their â??normalâ? seats in the band, the various elements of this composition gradually come together in a joyous unified celebration. Thoroughly researched to include authentic African patterns, Michael Sweeney has created a stunningly effective work that is playable by young ensembles. Includes performance and program notes on how to make your own percussion instruments and involve other departments in your school. Not just a piece of music...this is an event! (4:45).

Distant Thunder depicts the ever-changing world of a rainforest, with sparkling textures glistening like rainwater on leaves giving way to the fierce rumble of a storm. This highly dramatic work is written to showcase the percussion section, using energetic, syncopated rhythms and simple mixed meter patterns. Students will love playing Distant Thunder!

SKU: PR.496000970

Composed by Jonathan Leshnoff. Sws. Full score. Duration 11 minutes. Leshnoff Publishing #496-00097. Published by Leshnoff Publishing (PR.496000970).

ISBN 9781491121412. UPC: 680160627684.

Leshn off has worked closely with violinist Charles Wetherbee (1st violinist with the Carpe Diem String Quartet) on several projects. Wetherbee was soloist for the premiere of Leshnoff's Violin Concerto No. 1 and the Double Concerto for Violin and Viola, as well as in Distant Reflections. In this brief work, solo violin, piano (with percussive chords), and string ensemble are enhanced by an off-stage string quartet. Tension builds slowly to a memorable climactic moment, before subsiding again to stillness. Distant Reflections was recorded by Wetherbee and the Baltimore Chamber Orchestra (Markand Thakar, conducting) on the Naxos American Classics label.

In 2006, the International Astronomical Union clarified the definition of a planet, creating a new class of objects known as dwarf planets. They are defined as a celestial body orbiting the Sun that is massive enough to be rounded by its own gravity but has not cleared its neighboring region of planetesimals and is not a moon. As of the end of 2008, there are five known dwarf planets - Eris, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake and Ceres - and these are the subject of Songs of Distant Earth. Songs of Distant Earth was the third prize winner of the 2011 International Trombone Festival Composition Contest sponsored by Bone Therapy.
