Symphony No. 1 For Band

G. Schirmer Autograph Edition-Composer John Harbison writes: 'Rubies is a version of Thelonious Monk's 'Ruby My Dear' which he composed while still in his teens. When I was invited by the Seattle Symphony to make a short piecereflecting my first musical passions my thoughts were of Bach and Monk. Since I had recently made some Bach-like chorale preludes I chose to make a version of Monk's tune first in a chamber-musical contrapuntal manner then inthe grand orchestral style I had always heard lurking there.' Dur: 5:30 (Recorded live by the Rutgers Symphony Band - Peter Stanley Martin guest conductor).

(1997)Daugherty's first work for symphonic band Niagara Falls became an instant classic upon its premiere by the University of Michigan Symphony Band conducted by H. Robert Reynolds in 1997. Niagara Fallshas been played by high school university and professional wind ensembles all over the world and was featured in a highly acclaimed 2006 PBS documentary on the Falls. Inspired by the falls separating Canada and the UnitedStates this composition is another souvenir from Daugherty: a ten-minute musical ride over the Niagara River with an occasional stop at a haunted house or wax museum along the way.

Children for a New World was written at a time when many children worldwide skipped school and took to the streets to campaign for better climate control. This youth movement ‘Fridays for Future’ was inspired by the Swedish student Greta Thunberg and helps everybody to think about the future for us and our children. Young people are important for the future of our music bands too. Wind bands can play a significant part in children’s social and musical lives and are an ideal way to initiate cooperation between primary schools and the local community. Children for a New World is a good way to integrate class bands into local wind bands and provides a unique opportunity to perform in a larger ensemble. Accompanied by a youth or adult band or even both the class band will be at the centre of the performance.In Children for a New World you may recognise fragments from Dvorak’s Symphony No. 9 ‘From the New World’.

Arr. Douglas Court. Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Mendelssohn for band! Mendelssohn is known for the beauty of his melodic themes, and this one from the 'Italian' Symphony certainly fits that category. THEME from SYMPHONY #4 gives impressions of the people and landscapes of this beautiful country. A bucolic sense pervades the score and translates into a restful and uplifting musical experience. Douglas Court has done a marvelous job in bringing the orchestral textures to the young band stage. His considerable experience with directing young bands and his many fine compositions expressly for musicians at this level give him the ability to make the music as playable as it is authentic. Don’t miss it! / Niveau : 2 / Répertoire / Concert Band

for Symphonic Band-Rio Grande (2015) for symphonic band is Grammy award winning composer Michael Daughertys follow-up to his iconic Niagara Falls (1997). The title refers to the legendary 1 250-mile river that flows from the mountains of southern Colorado to the Gulfof Mexico near Brownsville Texas. In Rio Grande the composer has created a powerful musical landscape that is magical and majestic. The percussion section comprised of timpani bongos woodblocks tom toms and bass drums creates a rhythmicundercurrent to an angular motif that is first heard in the woodwinds emerging high above the musical precipice. This jagged motif is passed on to individual instruments such as the tuba and eventually in various colorful guises to the entiresymphonic band. Reminding us of the long cultural history associated with the great river we also hear ghostly Mexican mariachi music echoing faraway through the canyons. In the coda all the musical material is combined to create a grandiose endingto our journey down the timeless Rio Grande. A resounding success at the world premiere given by the North Texas Wind Symphony (Eugene Migliaro Corporon conductor) Rio Grande should prove to be one of Daughertys most popular and performed bandworks for years to come.
