inches. The life of
railroad worker in the
early days of expansion
was lonely, and the need
for music to bolster
spirits was of great
importance. The character
singing 900 Miles is
looking forward to being
reunited with his family
after being separated
from them for
considerable time. The
Wayfaring Stranger is a
prominent American folk
and gospel song that
reflects upon the journey
through life. The
character in that song
contemplates better times
with their family in the
afterlife. Both of these
songs speak to the idea
of searching for
something beyond the
current situation in
which that person finds
themselves. The
programmatic qualities of
the work are essentially
tied to the main folk
songa900 Milesaand they
evoke the idea of where
the song found its
origins. Beyond that,
both songs connect each
of us to the sense of
belonging and family that
are the human experience.
While the music paints a
picture of someone who is
alone, that is not a
feeling I want for any
young student in our
schools today. Band is
one of the few places
where students can
discover that sense of
belonging and find a
surrogate family. While
band is a family that
might not always get
along, they can reach a
shared goal through
diligent work, caring and
encouragement. It was a
pleasure completing
Lonely Travelers for
longtime friend, superb
musician, excellent
educator and dedicated
leader in music education
Dennis Emert. His
students debuted the work
at the 2020 PMEA State
Conference. I am deeply
appreciative of Dennis
and the friendship,
encouragement and
perspective he shared
with me over the years
teaching in the same
region. The opening
flute, clarinet and alto
saxophone part can be
performed by the entire
section or as a solo at
the discretion of the
director. The washboard
and spoon part can be
doubled as players allow.
I would suggest bringing
these students to the
front of the stage to get
the sound of both
instruments to the
audience. As the piece
develops and Wayfaring
Stranger is layered with
900 Miles, please remind
your ensemble to play so
they can hear each other,
not so they are
individually heard. I
thank you and your
ensemble in advance as
you begin this journey

680160918232. An
Ankh is an ancient
Egyptian hieroglyphic
representing the word
Life. The Ankh of
Eternity depicts an epic
journey through ancient
lands to find the
mythical Ankh of Eternity
amulet promising eternal
life. The piece journeys
through the desert in a
caravan, with a stop for
a Kaff celebration, an
Arabic hand-clapping folk
art. The discovery of the
tomb is spine chilling
and eerie with special
percussion effects. After
the Ankh is discovered,
swarms of locusts descend
and our travelers run for
their lives. They may
have found eternal life,
but will they be forever
cursed? The Ankh of
Eternity uses an Arabic
or double harmonic-major
scale. Performers have
multiple soloing and
improvising
opportunities. Complex
but repeating rhythms
offer players a chance to
practice getting in the
groove. Players and
audiences alike will be
invigorated by the many
celebratory moments and
thrilled at the eerie and
downright scary moments!
The Ankh of Eternity
offers cultural and
historical inclusion
opportunities,
improvisation, unique
scales, rhythmic
challenges, and a
thrilling story.
Conductor Notes: Measures
45-61: Kaff is the
ancient Arabic art of
hand clapping over
improvised poetry. The
Kaff Celebration section
represents this art form.
The improvising soloists
should be designated by
the conductor and should
each be four measures
long . Alternatively,
soloists may copy the
phrase in the second
ending as a solo. The
AYE! should be shouted
joyously. The repeat may
be omitted for
performance time
concerns, or, of course,
repeated multiple times
for more solos. Measures
64-73: Experiment with
different cymbal noises,
such as scrapes with a
nail or coin, taps with
triangle beaters, bowed
cymbals, etc.
Water-cymbal techniques
should also be used. Fill
a storage tub with water,
and with the suspended
cymbal still on the
stand, hit the cymbal a
couple times with a soft
mallet, and lower the
cymbal into the water for
a glissando effect. The
overall effect should be
creepy cave-like echoes
bending around
corners. An Ankh is an

inches. Mercury -
the Roman god of
financial gain, commerce,
travelers, boundaries,
luck, trickery,
merchants, and thieves. A
popular deity in Roman
culture, he was instantly
recognized by his unique
winged shoes (talaria)
and hat (petasos). With
its close proximity to
the sun and faster orbit
than all other planets,
the Romans named this
small celestial body
after the swift-winged
messenger of their
culture. It is not
surprising that in
Holst's major orchestral
suite The Planets that
Mercury utilizes such
light and swift themes.
There is some duality to
the title of the work.
Part of it involves my
impression of what a
playful chase of the
winged messenger sounds
like. The other part is
the opening motif chasing
two themes of Holst
around the rest of the
work. It was only after
developing the first few
ideas that I recognized
some of the commonalities
with some of those same
themes from Holst's
orchestral work. There
are several quotations
from that famous piece by
Holst (notably as both
are stated successively
at mm. 13-20). The idea
of someone having to
chase the Winged
Messenger struck me as a
unique title around which
to craft a work. One of
my core beliefs about
music is that it can be
imbued with meaning by a
composer, and as the
sonic story unfolds an
ensemble, director, and
audience members can draw
out their own meaning
from the experience. Who
exactly is chasing
Mercury? I leave that up
to the wonderfully
creative minds of the
young ladies and
gentlemen who have the
opportunity to bring this
work to life. The
opportunity to compose
music and allow student
musicians to give this
piece new life and draw
out different meanings is
a humbling experience.
Rehearsal Notes and
Suggestions As stated
earlier, the opening
motif (a range of a
seventh) comes back
frequently in the work in
a variety of settings and
textures. Throughout the
work, it is important for
students to recognize the
two themes from Holst
when they are present in
the sound canvas. If the
solos (clarinet and alto
saxophone) are utilized,
the supporting parts
around and underneath
those lines must be
sensitive and play in
such a way to properly
balance those parts.
There are number of muted
sections for the trumpet
section, and I would
advocate for all trumpets
acquiring the same mute
to contribute to unity in
timbre. The bold fanfare
sections (the first
occurs at m. 37) must be
presented with a unified
articulation style. As
the texture intensifies
prior to m. 169, it is
crucial for the ensemble
to play within themselves
and exercise musical
courtesy to allow all
voices to be heard as
they arrive at m. 181. My
thanks in advance for
your support of this
music, and I wish you
well as you and your
ensemble begin Chasing

seventh) comes back
frequently in the work in
a variety of settings and
textures. Throughout the
work, it is important for
students to recognize the
two themes from Holst
when they are present in
the sound canvas. If the
solos (clarinet and alto
saxophone) are utilized,
the supporting parts
around and underneath
those lines must be
sensitive and play in
such a way to properly
balance those parts.
There are number of muted
sections for the trumpet
section, and I would
advocate for all trumpets
acquiring the same mute
to contribute to unity in
timbre. The bold fanfare
sections (the first
occurs at m. 37) must be
presented with a unified
articulation style. As
the texture intensifies
prior to m. 169, it is
crucial for the ensemble
to play within themselves
and exercise musical
courtesy to allow all
voices to be heard as
they arrive at m. 181. My
thanks in advance for
your support of this
music, and I wish you
well as you and your
ensemble begin Chasing
Mercury!. Mercury
– the Roman god of
financial gain, commerce,
travelers, boundaries,
luck, trickery,
merchants, and thieves. A
popular deity in Roman
culture, he was instantly
recognized by his unique
winged shoes (talaria)
and hat (petasos). With
its close proximity to
the sun and faster orbit
than all other planets,
the Romans named this
small celestial body
after the swift-winged
messenger of their
culture. It is not
surprising that in
Holst’s major
orchestral suite The
Planets that Mercury
utilizes such light and
swift themes.There is
some duality to the title
of the work. Part of it
involves my impression of
what a playful chase of
the winged messenger
sounds like. The other
part is the opening motif
chasing two themes of
Holst around the rest of
the work. It was only
after developing the
first few ideas that I
recognized some of the
commonalities with some
of those same themes from
Holst’s orchestral
work. There are several
quotations from that
famous piece by Holst
(notably as both are
stated successively at
mm. 13–20). The
idea of someone having to
chase the Winged
Messenger struck me as a
unique title around which
to craft a work.One of my
core beliefs about music
is that it can be imbued
with meaning by a
composer, and as the
sonic story unfolds an
ensemble, director, and
audience members can draw
out their own meaning
from the experience. Who
exactly is chasing
Mercury? I leave that up
to the wonderfully
creative minds of the
young ladies and
gentlemen who have the
opportunity to bring this
work to life. The
opportunity to compose
music and allow student
musicians to give this
piece new life and draw
out different meanings is
a humbling
experience.Rehearsal

have experienced unique
moments in our lives that
create unforgettable
mental snapshots. These
images can often provide
comfort, a moment of
humor, or can be a source
of inspiration. Years ago
while traveling with (who
are now) old friends, I
witnessed a New Mexico
night sky for the very
first time. We were so
taken with the view that
we pulled our rental car
to the side of the
highway just to stand and
stare skyward. The
clarity and size of the
stars redefined my
understanding of our
place in this vast
universe. To my eye, I
was staring at hundreds
of little moons. In
writing this piece, I
wanted to capture a sense
of beauty, wonder and
humility. The euphonium
solo presents the theme
as a wistful offering to
things beyond our
understanding. Throughout
the selection this theme
is passed throughout the
ensemble, and thicker
textures evolve. The
mallet percussion plays a
vital role in providing
harmonic stability early
in the selection.
Non-pitched percussion is
essential in building
tension and generating
effective impacts at
louder dynamic levels.
Ideally, the two
triangles found in the
Percussion 2 part should
be mounted and of two
distinctly different
pitches. Both should be
played with light beaters
if possible. I sincerely
hope Many Moons provides
years of inspiration for
you and your ensemble
just as that southwestern
sky did for me amany
moonsa ago. All of us
