680160912483. 6.875 x
10.5 inches. Key: G
minor. English. Emily
Dickinson (1830-1886) ,
Walt Whitman
(1819-1892). The
two pieces, Who Robbed
the Woods? and O Cool is
the Valley Now, combine
to create a set that both
explores the subtle
beauty, serenity,
fragility, and resiliency
of nature and examines
our relationship to the
natural world around us.
The first song combines a
short poem by Emily
Dickinson with a journal
entry excerpt by Walt
Whitman entitled The
Lesson of the Tree.
Only two stanzas in
length, Dickinsons poem
considers the ways in
which people use and
exploit trees for their
own purposes and asks, on
the trees behalf, who
would do such a thing?
Whitman ponders a trees
silent majesty and power
and its ability to be yet
say nothing at all. The
musical setting begins
and ends in the mode of
G-Dorian while moving
briefly in the middle
section to Bb major. The
Dorian mode, similar to
the natural minor but
with a raised sixth scale
degree, possesses a
mysterious and whimsical
sound, fitting for a poem
that considers the
possibility of talking
trees. The accents and
syncopation of the piano
accompaniment should be
carefully observed, with
particular attention paid
to the syncopation found
in gestures occurring in
mm. 712. The beginning
a cappella
section should be hushed
yet intense; a richer,
fuller sound may be
brought out in the middle
section where the key
shifts to Bb major and
the choir sings of the
many noble qualities of
trees (mm. 3953). O Cool
is the Valley Now also
makes use of a modal
scale. Set primarily in D
Mixolydian, similar to D
major but with a lowered
seventh scale degree,
this modes lack of a
leading tone gives the
melody a folk-tune
quality. The piano should
at all times remain
legato and flowing, its
ascending and descending
gestures, found in mm.
910, imitating the
rolling hills and valleys
evoked in the text. The
phrases of the vocal
lines should also be
flowing and carefully
shaped. Additional rubato
and dynamic subtleties
may be added to
accentuate any number of
the suspensions and
dissonances that occur,
especially on p.

l Coronation Dances is
the first sequel to the
Fanfare Ode & Festival,
both being settings of
dance music originally
arranged by Gervaise in
the mid 16th-century (the
next sequel is The
Renaissance Fair, which
uses music of Susato and
Praetorius). Fanfare Ode
& Festival has been
performed by many tens of
thousands of students,
both in high school and
junior high school. I
have heard that some of
them are amazed that the
music they are playing
was first played and
danced to over 400 years
ago. Some students tend
to think that music
started with Handel and
his Messiah to be
followed by Beethoven and
his Fifth Symphony, with
naught in between or
before of consequence.
Although Royal Coronation
Dances is derived from
the same source as
Fanfare Ode & Festival,
they are treated in
different ways. I
envisioned this new suite
programmatically -- hence
the descriptive movement
titles, which I imagined
to be various dances
actually used at some
long-ago coronation. The
first movement depicts
the guests, both noble
and common, flanked by
flag and banner bearers,
arriving at the palace to
view the majestic event.
They are festive, their
flags swirling the air,
their cloaks brightly
colored. In the second
movement, the queen in
stately measure moves to
take her place on the
throne as leader and
protector of the realm.
In the third movement,
the jesters of the court
entertain the guests with
wild games of sport.
Musically, there are
interesting sonorities to
recreate. Very special
attention should be given
to the tambourine/tenor
drum part in the first
movement. Their lively
rhythms give the movement
its power. Therefore they
should be played as
distinctly and
brilliantly as possible.
The xylophone and
glockenspiel add clarity,
but must not be allowed
to dominate. Observe
especially the differing
dynamics; the intent is
to allow much buzzing
bass to penetrate. The
small drum (starting at
meas. 29) should be
played expressively, with
attention to the notated
articulations, with the
brass light and detached,
especially in a lively
auditorium. It is of some
further interest that the
first dance is extremely
modal. The original is
clearly in G mixolydian
mode (scale:
G-A-B-C-D-E-F-G).
However, other editors
might put in F-sharps in
many places (changing the
piece almost to G major),
in the belief that such
ficta would have been
automatically put in by
the 16th-century
performers as they
played. I doubt it. I
have not only eschewed
these within the work,
but even at the cadences.
So this arrangement is
most distinctly modal
(listen to the F-naturals
in meas. 22 and 23, for
instance), with all the
part-writing as Gervaise
wrote it. In the second
movement, be careful that
things do not become too
glued together. In the
16th century this music
might have been played by
a consort of recorders,
instruments very light of
touch and sensitive to
articulation. Concert
band can easily sound
heavy, and although this
movement has been scored
for tutti band, it must
not sound it. It is
essential, therefore,
that you hear all the
instruments, with none
predominating. Only when
each timbre can be heard
separately and
simultaneously will the
best blend occur, and
consequently the greatest
transparency. So aim for
a transparent, spacious
tutti sound in this
movement. Especially have
the flutes, who do this
so well, articulate
rather sharply, so as to
produce a chiffing sound,
and do not allow the
quarter-notes to become
too tied together in the
entire band. The entrance
of the drums (first
tenor, then bass) are
events and as such should
be audible. Incidentally,
this movement begins in F
Major and ends in D
Minor: They really didn't
care so much about those
things then. The third
movement (one friend has
remarked that it is the
most Margolisian of the
bunch, but actually I am
just getting subtler, I
hope) again relies upon
the percussion (and the
scoring) to make its
points. Xylophone in this
movement is meant to be
distinctly audible.
Therefore, be especially
sure that the xylophone
player is secure in the
part, and also that the
tambourine and toms sound
good. This movement must
fly or it will sink, so
rev up the band and
conduct it in 1 for this
mixolydian jesting. I
suppose the wildly
unrelated keys (clarinets
and then brass at the
end) would be a good
16th-century joke, but to
us, our
put-up-the-chorus-a-half-
step ears readily accept
such shenanigans.

Turner's impressive list
of award-winning
compositions will just
keep growing as he adds
pieces like this to his
repertoire! Zydeco Zephyr
starts out with some
boogie-woogie and then
moves to a fiddling style
in the second half. Not
only can you hear the
train within the music,
but this work also
includes an opportunity
for a soloist to
improvise. An example
solo is provided, but
this is a great way to
get your kids to express
themselves
musically. Zydeco
Zephyr combines elements
of zydeco and bluegrass.
Zydeco is a combination
of many styles including
Cajun, blues, and rock,
and is known for its use
of accordion, fiddle, and
washboard. The first
section of Zydeco Zephyr
is influenced by doo-wop,
a style zydeco musician
Clifton Chenier used in
his songs. The cellos
introduce the second
section with a
“trainâ€
groove in m. 27. A solo
section offers students
the opportunity to
improvise using a D
mixolydian mode (D, E,
F≥, G, A, B, C, D),
and a sample solo is
provided. This piece uses
straighteighths (no
swing!) and should be
performed with a great
deal of energy. Who
knows, you may just make
people in the audience
get up and
dance!Suggested
