Par TCHAIKOVSKI PIOTR ILITCH / JONES NATHAN (Arr.). Tchaikovsky composed his twelve character pieces for piano, The Seasons, while he was writing his popular ballet, Swan Lake. Each piece in The Seasons depicts a different month of the year in Russia. The original publication of September: The Hunt included an epigraph at the start of the piece-a small poem by Alexander Pushkin. This energetic arrangement for symphonic band by Nathan Jones opens with an octave fanfare between the winds and brass. Tchaikovsky\'s colorful harmony speaks here, with passing chromaticism adding color to the music. The fanfare theme is transformed in the quiet central section, still shifting to the minor mode with short solo passages for flute, bassoon, trumpet, xylophone and oboe (cued in flutes). The segue back into the opening fanfare is clever, with the notes leading through several keys before concluding in the major with a short reprise of the initial theme. / Date parution : 2022-09-20/ Répertoire / Concert Band

per oboe solo e banda-Cette pièce lyrique est dédiée au grand Augusto Loppi ex-hautbois solo de l?Orchestre de la Scala de Milan. La première a eu lieu à Monterosi dans la région du Latium en Italie sous la direction de Jacob de Haan avec Augusto Loppi en soliste. L?idiome sonore de cette œuvre n?est pas sans nous rappeler l?écriture des maîtres de l?opéra italien tels que Verdi et Donizetti mais aussi celle du compositeur de musiques de films Ennio Morricone sous la direction duquel Augusto Loppi a interprété le célèbre solo Gabriel?s Oboe extrait de la bande originale du film The Mission.

Eric Wilson along with the composer this version for wind band maintains all the wonder and magic of the original work.The opening is ethereal and somber with sustained chords in Clarinets and bowed Percussion supporting a delicate Oboe solo. The middle section shifts the principal modality from minor to major and the layering orchestration and rising tessitura creates a tremendousrush of energy that leads to a triumphant climax. The closing section returns to the timbre of the opening but now painted with hopefulness and healing.

This joyous fanfare offers many members of the band the opportunityto shine.

NASA's Apollo program is known for landing the first humans on the moon in 1969. In this composition, your dauntless adventure begins with a powerful lift off. Once achieved, the main theme is presented by flutes, oboe, and then trumpets, with stabilizers provided by baritone, tenor sax, and eventually the remainder of the crew. Stage 1 boosters (a strong, rhythmic accompaniment) provide the propulsion needed to voyage through to a sea of tranquility (lyrical section). From there we journey to an adventurous transition and a final re-entry of the main theme. (2:35) / Concert Band

To A New Dawn was commissioned by the United States Continental Army Band - Captain Timothy J. Holtan Commander and Conductor.The brief was for a piece to celebrate the 3rd Millennium and it was the composer’s aim to provide a work which as well as looking forward to the challenges of the new century also contained moments of reflection about the last one.After a bright introduction featuring the trumpets a perky theme passing quickly through several keys appears on the woodwinds. A solo trumpet takes up a new theme over bubbling quavers (eighth notes) and this leads to a rhythmic figure on low clarinets followed by the upper woodwinds. A brass interlude follows and after ashort bridge passage an oboe takes up a contrasting legato tune that builds to a climax.An andante section follows with solos for horn and flugel horn (or trumpet) and a florid flute cadenza. A passionate climax leads back to the faster music and eventually to a full recapitulation revisiting the earlier material before a lively coda close the work as it began.

In this colourful composition Jan van der Roost recreates the energetic and multi-racial city life in Manhattan using four contrasting movements. The opening movement is rather short and rhytmical. In the second ?Picture? a variety of musical entities accumulate into a coloured ?sound curtain? on top of which the brass section presents a broad theme. In contrast to the two previous movements the third movement is exremely quiet featuring the first flute clarinet an oboe in broad melodies. Again the orchestration plays an essential role. Following on a majestic ?tutti? (almost ?movie-like....) the serenity of the very beginning reappears. Finally the nervousness anddynamic style of the two first movements come back in an exciting apotheosis with rich and sometimes surprising instrumentation which explores the multiple possibilities of the large symphonic wind band to the full.
