Now available for treble voices. Royal Canadian Air Force Pilot John Magee wrote his popular poem “High Flight” when he was just 19 years old. In the poem, he describes the delirious feeling of wheeling and soaring, and an intimate connection with the divine. Setting these words, the composer's music soars and dives and floats and reflects the joy this young pilot experienced from the pilot's chair.

Just weeks after his nineteenth birthday, John Gillespie Magee, Jr. wrote the poem High Flight while serving in the Royal Canadian Air Force. The year was 1941, and World War II was culminating toward its darkest chapters. Magee had just completed his seventh flight in the iconic Spitfire Mk I fighter plane, soaring to heights well above 30,000 feet. These high altitude exercises supplied his inspiration for the poem, which describes the long, delirious, burning blue and having touched the face of God. Tragically, Magee died in a training exercise just months after writing High Flight. His words, however, live on to lift our hearts and stir the imagination. After you have learned High Flight, ask yourself the following questions: Are you singing the text clearly and articulately? Are you properly stressing the important syllables and backing off of non-stressed syllables? Is there a sense of energy throughout the piece, in both the lyrical, flowing sections and the up-tempo, faster sections? Are you also singing with a sense of energy no matter what the dynamic marking? Are you singing phrases with proper breath support and a sense of rise and fall to the phrase?.

On Wings of Flight is a jubilant, short overture that is meant to convey the wonder of soaring high above the ground. Programmatically, it can represent either the flight of birds or aircraft. Donat be concerned if you donat have some of the lower voice color instruments such as bass clarinet, baritone saxophone, and/or bassoon. Those instruments are doubled in the low brass. Bass trombone isnat essential as it doubles tuba, but a lack or scarcity of bass trombone and/or tuba isnat critical if you do have those other low woodwinds. The repetitive eighth-note accents should be lighter than normal so the ongoing effect is more propulsive than heavy. Keep those eighth-note patterns locked into the tempo so the band refrains from unwittingly accelerating. Think of the legato accented notes as slightly separated as opposed to being slurred. When the accented whole notes surrounded by rests are played, be sure they are held out for a full four counts. Save the crescendo for m. 19 and quickly drop back down in volume at m. 21. At m. 31, the whole notes do not crescendo to the same ff volume as the melody. Those parts are to save their crescendo for m. 35. Pay attention to the instruments that do not diminuendo at m. 39. In the slower section after m. 41, be careful that the diminuendos on the half notes donat sag in pitch as the notes get softer. Trumpets and horns at m. 49 must not play their notes as accents. Give particular attention to the diminuendos in the melody at m. 56, so that they fade out as the volume of the other instruments grows. The accented notes at mm. 85 and 86 should each be heard through the volume of the rest of the instruments, so that the addition of each pitch is adequately heard. If you wish, you may place more emphasis on the accents in the last two measures of the piece than you did earlier throughout the piece.

Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakovs Flight of the Bumblebee is one of those little orchestral interludes from operas, excerpts that have long since become immortal even while denying their origins; in this particular case, practically no one knows that this bravura piece comes from the opera The Tale of Czar Saltan. It did not take long before the Flight of the Bumblebee began showing up in many arrangements for solo instruments.

We are often so focused on presenting the entire ensemble that it’s easy to forget we can also program solo feature pieces. There are so many reasons to do just that. It rewards that special player who has been working so hard. It sets an example for other players in the section. It provides a nice contrast regardless of what else is programmed. Be sure to put on the demonstration CD found in this catalog and hear Flight of Fancy for yourself. We’re sure you’ll like it.Scintillating!< br>
Met Flight of Fancy kunt u een solist (fluit of mallets) in de schijnwerpers plaatsen. We zijn zo vaak gericht op het orkest als geheel dat we wel eens vergeten om solowerken te programmeren, maar er zijn redenen te over omdat te doen. U kunt er een goede, hardwerkende muzikant mee belonen en anderen kunnen er een voorbeeld aan nemen. Bovendien creëert u een aangenaam contrast in uw concertprogramma. Deze muziek illustreert de vlucht die de verbeeldingskrachtvan een mens kan nemen - dan weer zorgeloos en grillig, dan weer beschouwend, maar altijd boeiend.

Gibt es in Ihrem Blasorchester einen Flötisten oder Malletspieler, der sich mit Fleiß und Hingabe in der wöchentlichen Orchesterarbeit einen besonderen Auftritt im nächsten Konzert verdient hat? Flight of Fancy von Timothy Johnson ist eine wundervolle Gelegenheit, wahlweise einen Flötisten oder Malletspieler mit einem nicht allzu schweren Solostück ins Rampenlicht zu rücken!
