Pastor al music makers have talents that translate across denominations, and every now and then a musician might find him- or herself playing in unfamiliar territory (different order of service, different rituals, different traditions, different musical styles, etc.). The question of how to adapt to another pattern of worship may arise, creating a great deal of confusion or stress for the musician. A Primer for the Visiting Organist, edited by Fred Moleck, provides a comprehensive answer for anyone in this situation. This book includes insightful chapters by some of the foremost experts on music in worship that describe, in detail, what the visiting organist can expect when playing for one of the following eight religious traditions: African American Protestant: Dr. James Abbington Baptist: Dr. David Music Episcopalian: Dr. Carol Doran Reform Jewish: Mr. Scott Kumer Lutheran: Dr. Paul Westermeyer Presbyterian: Mr. David Eicher Roman Catholic: Mr. Robert Batastini & Dr. Fred Moleck United Methodist: Dr. Don Saliers A Primer for the Visiting Organist covers everything from the order of service to the question of receiving communion. There is a wealth of information here—no organist should travel without it.

Rainb ow in the Clouds is based on an old traditional spiritual, possibly an African-American song from the 19th century, entitled God Put a Rainbow in the Clouds.  Composer Carol Brittin Chambers was inspired by poetic Maya Angelou to create of setting of this beautiful song. It is lush and beautiful throughout and will highlight the musicianship of your students.  This would serve as a welcome change of pace piece on your program for concert or contest.
Rainbow in the Clouds was commissioned by the Pflugerville Middle School Wind Ensemble in Pflugerville, Texas, directed by Shauna Satrom. The piece premiered in May 2017, in memory and celebration of Luis Ham, who was an Assistant Principal at Pflugerville Middle School.This piece is based on an old traditional spiritual, possibly an African-American song from the nineteenth century, entitled God Put a Rainbow in the Clouds. The first time I heard reference to this song was in a Maya Angelou video, in which she sings a portion of it: “When it looked like the sun wouldn’t shine anymore, Oh, God put a rainbow in the clouds.” In the video, Dr. Angelou honors those who have demonstrated kindness to her in the past, and she suggests that we all try to be a blessing to others. The Pflugerville community believed that Mr. Ham, with his positive outlook, was definitely a “rainbow in the clouds” for other people.The piece begins with a full ensemble introduction, followed by a woodwind treatment of the first verse with a fairly reserved tempo and straight eighth-note rhythm. When brass pick up the melody on the second phrase, we start to hear the song more like the original spiritual, with dotted-eighth, sixteenth rhythms. The middle section of the piece at m. 22 begins to move at a slightly quicker tempo, and the mood becomes lighter. This section becomes a call-and-response between a euphonium solo and upper woodwinds. The final section of the piece involves everyone playing together joyously and full, eventually winding down with two more solo statements in flute and euphonium.Note to the Conductor:Use this piece to introduce or reinforce the following musical concepts:Lyrical, expressive playing varied stylesSolo responsibilitiesKey changes, tempo changes.

Trombone choir, tubas and drum set

SKU: P2.80051

Composed by Jonathan Hansen. Chamber music, 20th century. Published by Potenza Music (P2.80051).

I wrote this piece for Sergio Carolino's group Mr. SC and the Wildbones Gang as one of the many new pieces being written for the group about myths and legends, and decided to base it upon the legend of John Henry, the American folk-hero. Having been moved by this story at multiple stages in life, I have understood it variously as an ode to the power of human determination, a cautionary tale about clinging too desperately to a particular practice in a constantly evolving world, and an allegorical demonstration of the prices and benefits of ambition. It was by this last reading that I was particularly inspired in the composition of the piece. The program of the piece abstractly follows John Henry's portent birth, the state of his occupation, the machine's challenge against his livelihood, his race against said machine, and his victory, which ultimately leads to his death. I feel that trombones, bass trombones, tubas, and drums, are uniquely suited for playing a piece based on this material, given both the kinetic power and mental imagery of the legend, and so I tried to bring out these qualities throughout the piece. I drew idiomatically upon African American musical traditions (since the story itself has African American origins), and melodically upon a traditional John Henry folk song.
