Soaring is a mode of flight in which height is gained slowly by using air that is moving upwards. Written for music educator’s Randy Heuvelman’s 30 years of service to the Woodland (Illinois) School District, Soaring paints a music portrait of dedication, compassion and intensity, all aspects of this educator’s tenure. A slower middle section alternating between choirs of woodwinds and brass paints a serene portrait with lush harmonies and soaring countermelodies. The extensive percussion scoring utilizes timbres that add and complement the completed musical setting. Soaring is truly one of David’s best works.

Soari ng is a work commissioned by the G. Ray Bodley High School Bands under the direction of Terrance Caviness in Syracuse, New York. The work is dedicated to my dear friend David Bamonte, who is currently the Assistant Principal Trumpet of the Oregon Symphony in Portland, Oregon. David, Terry and I have been friends and colleagues for many years and were looking for a project to collaborate with each other. This work was originally written for Trumpet and Concert Band, but I quickly realized that it would work really well with a piano accompaniment as well. The result is the work you see here. As a trumpet player myself, I grew up studying the works of Arban, Clarke, Hindemith, Arutunian, Hummel, Haydn and the more modern sonatas by Kent Kennan and Halsey Stevens. This music is an homage to these great masters while keeping my original voice intact. At times, the piece is lush and lyrical while other moments showcase the power and majesty of the trumpet sound. The music is even a touch athletic while having a musical conversation with the piano. Enjoy the journey of discovering this exciting new work for you and your students. --Sean O'Loughlin.

Band concert band - Grade 3

SKU: CF.CPS137F

Composed by Sean O'Loughlin. Concert Performcnace Series. Full score. With Standard notation. 28 pages. Carl Fischer Music #CPS137F. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.CPS137F).

ISBN 9780825892790. UPC: 798408092795. 9 x 12 inches.

Soaring is an exciting composition for solo trumpet and concert band. The music is celebratory in nature and features the dynamic and rhythmic range of the trumpet. The piece opens with an American rhythmic gesture reminiscent of Aaron Copland and John Williams. The trumpet answers this gesture with a bold cadenza that will transform into the main melody a little later on in the piece. If you have a good trumpet player, this would be a great choice to feature them or it can be used with a feature soloist from elsewhere. Just gorgeous.

SKU: CL.RWS-2219-01

(Camden Celebration). Composed by Robert W. Smith. Concert Band. Extra full score. Composed 2022. RWS Music Company #RWS-2219-01. Published by RWS Music Company (CL.RWS-2219-01).

Woodwind flourishes, soaring melodic lines and powerful brass characterize this new symphonic statement by composer Robert W. Smith. Inspired by the Carolinas, one of America's most beautiful and historic regions, the composer takes us on a musically panoramic journey across the skies. From the mountains in the west (high country) to the Atlantic coast in the east (low country), the mid-Atlantic region epitomizes geographic and cultural beauty that is uniquely American and decidedly Carolinian. A brilliant addition to your next concert or festival performance.

String Orchestra - Grade 2.5

Composed by Brian Holmes. Voyager String Orchestra Series 2-2.5. Score and Parts. Kendor Music Inc #KVS2303. Published by Kendor Music Inc (KN.KVS2303).

12 x 9 inches.

The opening energetic eighth note pattern of the upper strings provides the perfect backdrop for the soaring melody of the Cello and Bass sections. The tempo remains constant throughout as the pulsating rhythm of the opening theme is passed from section to section. This would be a powerful way to begin or end a concert.
