Strike Up The Band

Five minutes to Twelve. Par SCHWARZ OTTO M.. Quand la nature se venge – cinq minutes avant minuit Périodes glaciaires, périodes de réchauffement climatique, impacts d'astéroïdes - le climat de notre planète a toujours été en mutation. La différence avec avant est que le changement depuis la révolution industrielle est maintenant de plus en plus causé par les êtres humains. Le dégagement de gaz à effet de serre en particulier favorise notamment le réchauffement de l'atmosphère et des océans. Certains experts prédisent même une augmentation pouvant atteindre 4,8 degrés d'ici la fin du 21e siècle. Le résultat d'un tel développement serait un gigantesque mouvement migratoire en plus de catastrophes environnementales difficilement prévisibles. Il est important de réduire les émissions de CO2 : il est minuit moins cinq. Les signes avant-coureurs de la catastrophe nous sont déjà parvenus. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Concert Band/Harmonie

Par BULLA STEPHEN. Stephen Bulla strikes gold again with this accessible but jazzy Trombone section feature. There is plenty of rhythmic fun for everyone while the trombones get that important time out front. The old spiritual 'The Gospel Train' lends itself beautifully to a swing-jazz treatment and if there's anyone who knows how to bring the jazz idiom to the concert band setting it's Stephen Bulla. If you prefer, two Trombone soloists can be featured while the rest of the section plays along on the Euphonium part.
