This masterful work by Jay Bocook was composed for fellow South Carolinian and highly regarded educator Scott Rush, known for his accomplishments with the nationally acclaimed Wando High School band program. Employing a minimalistic approach, this dynamic piece uses layers of constantly evolving textures and rhythmic devices, while propelled throughout by an energetic underlying pulse. Sprinkled with surprises and dramatic effects, and culminating with the full force of the entire ensemble, Head Rush is a dramatic and unique addition to the repertoire for mature ensembles.

Beginning with a snare riff based on this audible football chant, the content of Five Mississippi Rush is inspired by its title. A five-Mississippi rush is often used in pickup football games where there is no offensive line and the defense has to count five Mississippis before rushing the quarterback. Cliff Taylor’s use of five-note motives and five-element phrases combine with the melodic and harmonic language of the blues that is rooted in the State of Mississippi. This engaging work will appeal to both performers and audiences. Exhilarating throughout!
