A Stroll in the Park is a piece in the tradition of “walking music” (such as the “Promenade” from Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition or Gershwin's “Walking the Dog” from Shall We Dance). It strives to describe the joyful benefits of a relaxing walk in a city park on a summer Sunday afternoon, and should be played in a relaxed, carefree and laidback manner.

Saying Goodbye is one of a series of original works in pop, rock and swing styles Philip Sparke has composed to try and give brass bands their own popular vocabulary and identity. It could be described as happy-sad in mood, a feature of much of Sparke’s slower music. A perfect light addition for your concert. A Stroll in the Park is een werk in de traditie van ‘lopende’ muziek (zoals Promenade uit Moessorgski’s Schilderijententoonstelling of Walking the Dog uit Gershwin’s Shall we Dance?). Het beschrijft de genoegensvan een ontspannen wandeling in een stadspark op een zomerse zondagmiddag. De Engelse uitdrukking ‘a walk in the park’ of ‘a stroll in the park’ kan de betekenis hebben van ‘iets betrekkelijk eenvoudigs’ - en daarin ligt een duidelijkeaanwijzing over de manier waarop dit werk gespeeld moet worden: ontspannen, zorgeloos en relaxed.Saying Goodbye ist ein Stück aus einer Reihe von Originalwerken in Pop-, Rock- und Swingstilen, die Philip Sparke komponierte, um Brass Bands mit einer eigenen populären Sprache und Identität auszustatten. Die Stimmung lässt sich als fröhlich-traurig beschreiben, ein Merkmal, das in Sparkes langsamerer Musik oft zu finden ist. Ein originelles neues Werk, das in Ihrem unterhaltsamen Repertoire nicht fehlen sollte! A Stroll in the Park (“Fl nerie dans le parcâ€) s’inscrit dans la lignée des fl neries musicales telles que la Promenade extraite des Tableaux d’une Exposition de Moussorgski ou encore Walking the Dog extrait de Shall we Dance? de George Gershwin. La musique décrit les plaisirs et les vertus d’une promenade improvisée dans un parc un dimanche après-midi au cœur de l’été.Promenade ou fl nerie ? Peu importe le terme choisi, pourvu que le style d’interprétation soit décontracté, insouciant et léger.

Vernon Park, Stockport’s oldest park, was created on land donated by Lord Vernon (George John Warren). It was built by poor mill workers who called it pinch-belly park and opened on 20th September 1858. Comprising twenty-one acres, it houses a museum, a bandstand, ornamental fountains, a fernery, rockery, borders and sunken rose garden as well terraced walkways that overlook the river and weir. The piece depicts a solitary walker engrossed in his own thoughts on a winter’s day, the landscape, and the park’s Victorian past.At the very end of the piece a reminder of the park’s Victorian origins can be detected in a quote from Elgar’s Salut d’amour of 1899, which may well have been played by a band in the bandstand. Stockport market celebrated its 750th anniversary in 2010. It dated back to September 1260 when a Royal Charter allowed Robert de Stokeport, the Mayor, to hold a weekly market within the defensive walls of the Norman Castle on the present site of Castle Yard.The Glass Umbrella was a popular name given to the 1861 covered market built of timber, glass and iron - nine bays with open sides and a glass canopy. In 1912, one bay was removed to enable electric trams and trolley buses to turn a sharp corner.The piece depicts a lively market day, the multiculturalism of the present day and the old cries of pick and pay without delay. The bells of St Mary’s Church are depicted by a cascading peel tuned to the ten bells of the church tower, and a fleeting reference to John Wainwright’s famous Christmas hymn Christians Awake, and the Westminster chimes striking the hour from St Mary’s, bring to piece to a conclusion. Separate parts are provided for recorder and oboe.

Carl Strommen, an alumnus of the Bellmore-Merrick CHSD, composed A Walk in the Park for Walter Avenllaneda's John F. Kennedy High School Band. This composition features dynamic brass and sweeping & energetic woodwind lines. Adhere to natural phrases for which the music of Carl Strommen is known, especially in the beginning and end of the piece, to achieve the full sustained chords that are written. Make sure to bring out the three- note motif as it is orchestrated throughout the piece even in the beginning. The fast sections should be vibrant, energetic and with exaggerated dynamics that follow the line shapes. The Waltz in the middle requires a complete change of style and adds a wonderful contrast to the energy of the piece. The transition out of the Waltz into the new tempo will take some time but is well worth the effort to pull it off. The energy returns until we get a wonderful dramatic and bold ending.Carl Strommen, an alumnus of the Bellmore-Merrick CHSD, composed A Walk in the Park for Walter Avenllaneda’s John F.

One of the bravest and most potent calls to social action by one individual was the famous 1955 refusal by Rosa Parks to give up her bus seat, laying the groundwork for the ensuing civil rights movement. Hailstork’s title says it all, and his dramatically expressive work for solo viola declaims it all. Using a musical language that evokes action, blues, and power, along with a considerable infusion of contemplation and determination, ROSA PARKS SAID “NO†is a 9-minute instrumental monodrama perfect for any concert recital as well as special programming needs.The Montgomery bus boycott was a political and social protest campaign against the policy of racial segregation on the public transit system of Montgomery, Alabama. It was a foundational event in the civil rights movement in the United States. The campaign lasted from December 5, 1955 — the Monday after Rosa Parks, an African American woman, was arrested for her refusal to surrender her seat to a white person — to December 20, 1956, when the federal ruling Browder v. Gayle took effect, leading to a U.S. Supreme Court decision that declared the Alabama and Montgomery laws that segregated buses were unconstitutional.THE FIGHTIn addition to using private motor vehicles, some people used non-motorized means to get around, such as cycling, walking, or even riding mules or driving horse-drawn buggies. Some people also hitchhiked. During rush hours, sidewalks were often crowded. As the buses received few, if any, passengers, their officials asked the City Commission to allow stopping the service to black communities. Across the nation, black churches raised money to support the boycott and collected new and slightly used shoes to replace the tattered footwear of Montgomery’s black citizens, many of whom walked everywhere rather than ride the buses and submit to Jim Crow laws.THE TRIUMPHThe Montgomery bus boycott resounded far beyond the desegregation of public buses. It stimulated activism and participation from the South in the national Civil Rights Movement.
