Par WATSON SCOTT. The 14th-century carol, 'Personent hodie,' is both mysterious and powerful. On This Day Earth Shall Ring---a festive processional on the ancient melody arranged by Scott Watson---explores both aspects. Beginning quietly, the modal tune emerges over a chant drone with rustic, medieval percussion. Before long, the piece takes on the joyous character alluded to in the tune's most familiar English text setting, 'On This Day Earth Shall Ring' (written by composer, Jane Joseph, a student of Gustav Holst). As the work draws to an ebullient close, all the stops are pulled with resounding brass and ringing metallic percussion! Whether used as a striking concert opener or a jubilant final selection, On This Day Earth Shall Ring will add festive élan to your winter/holiday program!

Par LOPEZ VICTOR. Give your students the opportunity of playing a piece for beginning band that is upbeat and full of excitement! Violento is an original beginning band composition by veteran composer Victor López. This exciting work is a forceful and rhythmically driven composition that sounds more difficult than written. A mixture of the danzón---Cuba's unique genre of song and dance---and basic rhythmic interplay give this piece a unique touch. The inclusive, simple, and repetitious rhythmic patterns will certainly make an energetic statement at your next concert. (1:53) / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Répertoire / Concert Band

Par HODGES STEVE. Upon completion of an activity, an event, or other meaningful experiences, there is a time for reflection for what has been accomplished and what is to follow. This lyrical piece features a memorable melody that is presented by all sections of the band. These reflective presentations lead into a slightly faster minor section indicating the anticipation of plans for the future. The final presentation of the melody indicates a positive feeling of accomplishment and features a moving countermelody by the woodwinds leading to a quiet, contemplative ending. Check out Journey's End, composed by Steve Hodges. (2:48) / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Répertoire / Concert Band

Par BECK BRIAN. Kick off your shoes, jump in, and ride down Comegys Creek. This North Texas creek is named after Dr. C. G. Comegys, a prominent family who lived in Mckinney, TX in the early 1900s. Composer and fellow Texan, Brian Beck captures the southern rowdiness of frolicking in the water with friends and family. Comegys Creek is a fun piece that will expand your student's harmonic vocabulary and is perfect for introducing and reinforcing accidentals that create interesting harmonies, all within a comfortable range. It also explores the many permutations of the 8th and 16th note combinations, as well as introduces and reinforces 7/8 time signature. Groups performing this piece will become 'multi-meter masters' in no time! (2:24). / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Répertoire / Concert Band

Par SCIAINO PETER. 'Bahumba' is a nonsense word but a no-nonsense selection for concert band. The word stems from a sound composer Peter Sciaino heard coming from an idling car. The engine, clearly having issues, had an 'uneven' gate or pulse. He mindlessly heard the word 'Bahumba' within the sounds emerging from the struggling motor. Just like an engine, an ensemble can attain a smooth groove even if 'uneven' in terms of pulse. While the percussionists are often asked to provide this groove under the melodic lines, they ultimately break out with a feature that essentially places a percussion ensemble within the context of a concert band piece.

Par GASSI VINCE. 'Bandwidth,' according to Webster's Dictionary, is the maximum data transfer rate of an electronic communications system. In Bandwidth by Vince Gassi, waves of sound and rhythmic energy (1.21 gigawatts to be exact) are transferred to you and your audiences. Right from the first measure this piece will power on and power you up. Syncopated figures contrast with legato lines while the momentum build throughout.

Par PEDERSON DAKOTA. Ambush by Dakota Pederson is a work that describes the fight of war and recounts a flanking ambush set out by soldiers as they close in on a victory. A fiery chord opens the work and is followed by a relentless melody, which is expressed through precise articulation. The work challenges performers to focus on articulation and expression, while giving the percussion section a driving rhythm to maintain the energy. Strong harmonies in the brass and bold melodies throughout make this piece a fierce statement of war and victory. (4:12) / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Répertoire / Concert Band

Exotic harmonies combine with driving rhythms and colorful percussion to create a soundscape of shifting sands and faraway lands.

Par WEBB AMY. Operation Invictus is a rising band work that checks all the boxes: exciting parts for all players, commanding rhythms, and challenging, yet surmountable melodies that will leave your band feeling great about themselves and their performance. Each instrument gets to play snappy little licks that are so engaging they'll want to practice. Even the low brass gets some fanfare-like material that will sound powerful. The very word invictus is Latin for 'undefeated.' A tremendous piece at the easy level that can be played either at the beginning or end of your next concert or festival.

as recorded by Percy Faith Orchestra. Par DIAMOND NEIL. Neil Diamond a écrit sa Crunchy Granola Suite lorsqu'il s'est installé à Los Angeles, dans les années 1970, et qu'il a découvert que le granola macrobiotique était bon pour la santé. Les paroles de cette joyeuse chanson suggèrent même que manger du granola pourrait faire plus de bien qu'une visite chez le psychologue... La chanson est devenue encore plus populaire lorsque le célèbre orchestre de Percy Faith en enregistra une version instrumentale. Elle a été reprise dans de nombreuses émissions de radio, et ce pour de bonnes raisons.

Par VILHELMSEN INGEBJORG. 'The Cosmographic Mystery' outlines the great mysteries and secrets of the universe. The musical foundation is a tribute to composer Gustav Holst, and his suite 'The Planets'. Each movement from the suite is quoted in the course of the piece. The title is taken from a book by the German astronomer Johannes Kepler, which was published in the 17th century. The book explains Kepler's cosmological theory that the distance relationship between the planets could be understood in light of the five Platonic solids. The theory proposes that the solids dictate the structure of the universe through geometry. 'The Cosmographic Mystery' is supported by the Norwegian Composers' Fund, and was commissioned by Oslofjord brass. / Date parution : 2023-10-31/ Répertoire / Concert Band

Norge i rødt, hvitt og blått ('Norway in Red, White and Blue') was commissioned by the Oslo Fagott Choir (yes, that is indeed a gay men?s choir) for a concert with The Staff Band of the Armed Forces in 2015. I was given artistic licence to write a more modern and somewhat ?eclectic? arrangement for this originally Swedish melody written by Lars-Erik Larsson, which became something of a national liberation anthem when Nazi occupation ended in May 1945 ? then with new lyrics by Finn Bø, Bias Bernhoft and Arild Feldborg. After the premiere in Oslo, and a music video with Oslo Fagott Choir and The Staff Band, broadcasted by Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK) on Constitution Day during coronavirus lockdown in 2020, I was approached by many to write an instrumental version of the arrangement for concert band. This version is now available through Norsk Noteservice. Reid Gilje has made this instrumentation for Brass Band. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Cuivres
