This work was commissioned by Dr. Robert Oertli from Möhlin, Switzerland, and is based on an earlier composition called Spirit of the Sequoia. The piece is inspired by how the human spirit can gain from setbacks: we become stronger after adversity. Sparke used the Californian redwood tree as a metaphor for this basic idea. The remarkable life cycle of these amazing trees involves them dropping seeds to the ground, which require heat to open their shells and germinate; the seeds require destruction in order to procreate. This piece is particularly suitable for younger bands - one of the last wishes of the initial commissioner.Dit werk is geschreven in opdracht van dr. Robert Oertli uit het Zwitserse Möhlin. Het is een vereenvoudigde versie van een eerdere compositie: Spirit of the Sequoia. De muziek is ge nspireerd op de wijze waarop mensen hun voordeel doen met tegenslag vaak komen we er sterker uit. Sparke gebruikte de Californische sequoiaboom als metafoor voor dit basisidee. In hun opmerkelijke levenscyclus laten deze bijzondere bomen zaden op de grond vallen, die vervolgens hitte nodig hebben om open te barsten en te kiemen; de bomen hebben dus eigenlijk een ramp nodig om zich voort te planten. Deze compositie is geschikt voor jongere orkesten dit was een van de laatste wensen van deaanvankelijke opdrachtgever. Dieses Werk basiert auf der Komposition Spirit of the Sequoia, welche von Dr. Robert Oertli aus Möhlin (Schweiz) in Auftrag gegeben wurde. Sparke nutzte den kalifornischen Mammutbaum als Metapher für seine Grundidee: Der bemerkenswerte Lebenszyklus dieser erstaunlichen Bäume hängt damit zusammen, dass seine Samen auf die Erde fallen und Wärme benötigen, damit sich ihre Schale öffnet und sie zu keimen beginnen. Waldbrände zerstören den Mutterbaum, ermöglichen aber paradoxerweise das Sprie?en der Samen, welche die Zerstörung zur Fortpflanzung benötigen. Auf ähnliche Weise kann die menschliche Seele profitieren: Wir gehen gestärkt aus einem Unglück hervor. And Still, theSpirit eignet sich besonders für jüngere Orchester einem der letzten Wünsche des Auftraggebers entsprechend. Cette ?uvre fut commandée par Robert Oertli, de Möhlin en Suisse, et est basée sur une composition antérieure appelée Spirit of the Sequoia. Ce morceau est inspiré par la façon dont l??esprit humain peut réellement tirer parti des échecs de la vie : nous devenons plus forts face l??adversité. Sparke utilise le séquoia californien comme métaphore pour son idée de base. Le cycle de vie remarquable de ces arbres spectaculaires repose sur des graines qui, tombées par terre, nécessitent de la chaleur pour germer ; elles ont besoin de l??effet dévastateur d??un incendie pour se développer. Cette ?uvre convient particulièrement bien aux jeunes formations, ce qui était l??un desderniers souhaits du Dr Oertli. Lavoro commissionato dal dott. Robert Oertli (Möhlin, Svizzera) a basato su una precedente composizione intitolata Spirit of the Sequoia, è un inno alla vita, un incitamento a superare tutti gli ostacoli che questa può riservare. Mediante la metafora del ciclo vitale della sequoia californiana, che necessita di calore perché il guscio dei suoi semi si schiuda e germogli, Sparke ci consegna un??opera suggestiva, particolarmente indicata per le bande giovanili, così come nei desideri del committente.

This work is my second for a solo woodwind and a solo percussionist, following Firewing: The Flame and the Moth for oboe and percussion by nine years. The earlier piece followed a specific story line, and pitted the oboe against the percussionist as both adversary and lover. In Spirit Realms, my aim was not only to juxtapose the very different sounds of flute (plus alto flute and piccolo) against a large array of percussion, but also to attempt three different meditative spaces, each named for a different type of spiritual practice. The musical means of expression is very different for each of the three movements (as is the instrumentation), although they share a common scale-source: the looped pentatonic scale I have been developing over the last several years. The first movement is called Prayer Tunnel, and is named for the Eskimo practice of solo meditation within a tunnel of ice blocks. This is said to be a means of overcoming demons within, and in my musical rendering it takes the form of an unaccompanied alto flute solo. The flute begins rather angrily, full of tension, but in the course of the solo passage manages to slowly unwind. The percussionist then plays the exact same music the alto flute had played....on seven tuned cymbals. Toward the end, the alto flute re-enters, its original meditation having fused with its mirror. Kiva represents the circular, subterranean pit in which the Anasazi practiced their religion, a form of which still can be found in the Hopi tribes of the American southwest. These are not spaces for solo meditation, but rather a group meeting place in which only the sanctified are permitted. After an introductory invocation (dove call), the music begins. At first, it is flowing, in a repetitive double-five meter. It then traces several sections, with metric shifts forcing the pulse to race faster and faster, until it halves itself in the coda and returns to the exact pulse of the beginning. The flutist here uses the C flute, and the percussionist plays on both pitched (marimba) and unpitched instruments (various drums and struck sources). Zendo is the meditation room used by Zen Buddhists. My music begins with another invocation (wind chimes, temple cup gongs, and temple blocks), then moves on to a slow subject stated by the flute. The subject is taken up by the vibraphone, and after several modulations and tempo changes, the flutist takes up the piccolo. The music continues higher and higher, and faster and faster (Zen meditation is NOT all about becoming lost!) until it breaks free at the very end. The percussionist is put through his paces in this movement, having to reach a staggering number of instruments in a short time. Spirit Realms was commissioned by, and is dedicated to, the Armstrong Duo. -- Dan Welcher.

Free Spirit offers a fresh new sound from composer Sean O'Loughlin. It has a uniquely American sound to it with open chords contrasted with lush flowing melodies that interplay back and forth in a struggle for supremacy that is finally settled with both co-existing together in the end for a wonderful punctuated ending.Free Spirit is a dynamic composition for the more advanced string ensemble. Full of lyrical and rhythmic passages, the music is a great way to showcase the musicianship of your ensemble.The rhythmic motive at the beginning serves as a connecting thread throughout the com- position. The rhythmic accents are added in m. 5 to increase the intensity and provide a slightly different color to the music. Some interplay follows at the section at m. 13. A lyrical melody then starts to soar over top of the rhythmic motive at m. 27. Bring out the contrast in the different styles simultaneously. The rhythmic energy fades away at m. 36 and gives way to a lush, haunting passage. The rhythmic motive quickly returns at m. 42 for some further development alongside the lyrical melody. A slight departure from the tonal center at m. 53 brings us back to a full presentation at m. 62. Some imitation and counterpoint lead us back to a recapitulation of the central musical ideas at m. 85. The lyrical melody returns as an echo of its former self at m. 100. This leads to a final build-up section at m. 110. Keep the accents punchy and crisp throughout this passage. This climaxes at a tutti gesture to end the piece with fire.
