Arachnophobi a - fear of spiders - is the title of one of Maxime Aulio's first compositions for saxophone quartet (SATB). It is a simple musical amusement and a humorous allusion to the composer's fear of spiders. Come forth intrepid saxophone players! Arachnophobie betekent: ‘Angst voor spinnen'...! Het is de welluidende titel van het nieuwe werk voor saxofoonkwartet van Maxime Aulios. Ook de afzonderlijke delen hebben natuurlijk toepasselijke titels. Zo passeren Spinnendans, Marsvan de vogelspin en Zwarte Weduwe allemaal de revue. Bang voor spinnen? Na het horen van dit prachtige werk vast niet meer!Arachnoph obie - Angst vor Spinnen - ist der klangvolle Titel einer von Maxime Aulios ersten Kompositionen für Saxophonquartett. Mit einem Augenzwinkern bezieht er sich darin auf seine eigene Angst vor Spinnen. Keine Angst vor diesem anspruchsvollen Werk sollten Saxophonisten haben: Die Mühe lohnt sich! Arachnophobie< /I>, la phobie des araignées, est le titre d'une délicieuse composition en trois mouvements (Danse d'araignées - Marche de la mygale - Veuves noires) de Maxime Aulio, écrite pour quatuor de saxophones. N'ayez crainte, cette œuvre qui ne vous piquera pas, vaut la peine d'être jouée. L'aracnofobia, ovvero la paura dei ragni, è il tema di questo brano per 4 sassofoni (SATB) di Maxime Aulio. Anche i titoli dei tre movimenti fanno riferimento ai ragni: La danza dei ragni, La marcia dei ragni, La vedova nera. Un brano esigente, ma che i sassofonisti non devono temere. Anzi, in concerto proporranno una musica nuova ed accattivante!

Origins of the Tarantella The tarantella is a popular southern Italian dance with origins in the 11th century. (There is even some mention of the tarantella in ancient Greek mythology.) Of the possible sources of the dance, the most popular comes from the villages of Tanto and Tarentum (little spider), Italy. During harvest, workers in the field were sometimes bitten by the tarantula spider. To combat the poison, the afflicted workers went into a frenetic, almost musical exorcism to sweat the venom out of their pores. In the millennium since, the very energetic nature of the dance has remained, although the curative focus of the dance has given way to more enjoyable endeavors, even stately courtship. Origins of the Text Christopher Smart (1722-1771), also known as Kit Smart or Jack Smart, was born in Kent, England and suffered from what is now believed to be acute asthma and other health issues as a child. As such, he did not work in the fields, but spent much time reading and writing, a passion that he nurtured for a lifetime. Well known in London literary circles, his career as a writer floundered due to mounting debts and his falling out of favor with the literary establishment: Sadly, he was forced to confinement at St. Luke's Hospital for Lunatics, though this was based on his mounting debt, and not on insanity. (Confinement, or debtor's prison, was common during this period if one's debts could not be paid.) During his confinement, he worked on two of his most famous works, Jubilate Agno and A Song of David. (Part of Jubilate Agno [Rejoice in the Lamb] was set to music by English composer, Benjamin Britten.) Smart's writing style (which, at times, bordered on the absurd), along with his many obsessions, lead to frequent misperceptions of his work and his lucidity. In this present work, portions of Smart's Jubilate Agno were used in mm. 24-31, 103-110 and 149-156. The remaining text was gathered by the composer, including the rapid, almost patter-like, delivery of words from A-Z in the alphabet. (Christopher Smart had a preoccupation with the alphabet.) These words both rhyme and accentuate the frenetic nature of the spider dance: theraphosa [teh-rah-fo-sa] a genus of tarantula spiders bellicose [beh-lee-ko-sah] hostile; aggressive odiosa [o-dee-o-sa] hateful; vexation tenebrosa [teh-neh-bro-sa] creeping; dark nemorosa [neh-mo-ro-sa] wooded; shady lapidosa [lah-pee-do-sa] stony area; gritty The convergence, then, of the medieval tarantella (spider dance), the writings of a brilliant poet who bordered on the absurd, and the infusion of strong, descriptive and otherwise random, rhyming words, synthesizes to make dramatic lyrics for this work. About the Composer Z. Randall Stroope is an American composer and conductor. He has served as Professor of Music at three universities (an Endowed Professor at two), conducted 47 all-state choirs, and directed over 40 times at Carnegie Hall, among other American venues. Randall guest conducts full-time, and composes from his home studios on Merritt Island, Florida and in Sandia Park, New Mexico. Performance Notes Text: In Latin, the r is flipped; use s instead of z on endings such as phosa, cosa, and so on; the Latin o is a cross between oh and aw; in the transliteration above, I chose to simply use an o for consistency. The director will blend the oh and aw in the rehearsals to his/her own preference. Lastly, tarantula is pronounced tah-rah-n-too-lah (avoid teh-ran-choo-luh) within the confines of this text. Stomp: This can be done by the entire chorus, or just the first row. It is as much visual as it is auditory. The string quartet is preferred over piano when that option affords itself. I created a piano score that is a viable option and included it in the piano/vocal score if a performance uses chorus/piano.The tarantella is a popular southern Italian dance with origins in the 11th century.

Anton Filtz (also Fils) was born in September of 1733, in Eichstaett, Germany. In 1754 he became a member of the Mannheim Hofkapelle as a cellist (the Mannheim orchestra was at that time conducted by Johann Stamitz). He composed an extensive body of work, including at least forty symphonies, and died in March of 1760 in Mannheim at the age of 26. It has been alleged that his untimely demise was a result of his habit of eating spiders, (whose flavor he described as being exactly like that of strawberries!)!

The piano accompaniment's warlike dissonances are juxtaposed to the choir's peace motifs in an effective struggle. A fine concert closer.
