The Polar Vortex is the mass of extremely cold air situated over each of the earth's poles. Occasionally the vortex slips away from the polar region bringing unusually cold air to areas away from the pole. Polar Vortex is a depiction of a winter storm inspired by the poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson, The Snow-Storm. It is a rhapsodic piece with many contrasting moments, styles, tempos, and colors of sound. A sophisticated new work from composer Gene Milford.

Maelstrom is a term synonymous with a whirlpool: a swirling, tumultuous vortex that engulfs everything around it. This exciting piece starts with a treacherous storm motif that acts as the undercurrent as quotes from famous water-themed compositions are heard. Some shifting is required in first violin, cello, and bass, and all parts include accidentals and dramatic dynamic changes. Students will learn the flowing theme from Smetana's Die Moldau, explore the haunting Aquarium movement from Saint-Saens's Carnival of the Animals, and bow along to a traditional Irish Sea Chanty, as melodies overlap in this musical storm. Developing players will refine articulation skills, explore a variety of rhythms in 6/8, and expand their chromatic and dynamic horizons in the familiar key of E minor.

A swirling vortex...a spinning clock going backwards and forwards...cities growing or shrinking in size before one's very eyes...these are the images of many a tale of temporal adventure throughout the ages. Take a trip through time with Composer Steve Parsons!

Kathryn Griesinger builds the forceful minor theme of Centrifuge on a repeating motif of rotating eighth notes. Based on the scientific principle of centripetal force, this piece offers a vortex of expanding and falling energy, with easy finger patterns in first position. Centrifuge is a whirlwind of excitement, and it is well within the reach of developing players. An optional piano part is also included.
Like the rotational force of the mechanical centrifuge, a repeating eighth-note motif gives this piece the feel of a spinning cyclone, constantly building energy and momentum. Driving rhythms in the cello and bass should be strong and steady. Viola and Violin 2 parts are written closely, often doubled for a strong echoing voice. Eighth-note patterns sound best if played at the middle or balance point of the bow, to enable easy transitions between springy, short staccatos and long, full half notes on the string. Students have ample opportunities to practice low-two finger patterns and create dramatic dynamic contrasts. The pizzicato section should remain steady, maintaining a sense of urgency and excitement. The dark minor tonality and sense of motion make this a powerful piece students will love to play!

Faster and easier Cable-free DJing without sound delays is now possible with the WAVE-EIGHT thanks to SonicLink. This new ultra-low-latency technology wirelessly transmits audio much faster than a Bluetooth connection so only a fraction of a second passes between pressing play on the decks and hearing the track through the speakers, which lets you mix without missing a beat. Take the included transmitter out of its storage compartment on the WAVE-EIGHT and connect it to your DJ gear, and you can instantly create a wireless connection, enabling you to throw a DJ party anywhere you want. And if you combine the WAVE-EIGHT with the new OMNIS-DUO portable all-in-one DJ system, which features battery power, you can play cable-free for total freedom. Professional sound with effortless setup With a highly efficient Class D amplifier, a newly designed 8-inch driver, and a Vortex Bass Accelerator which delivers clear and powerful bass, the WAVE-EIGHT will bring the vibes and the punch to your party's sound, even in outdoor settings. To cover larger events and spaces, you can easily add more units to your setup with the SonicLink connection: e.g., using 2 speakers in stereo for an expansive experience, or with a third added as a dedicated subwoofer for a club-like heavy bass sound. There are even several modes you can change between with a single switch to create the type of sound you need, including Mono, Stereo, and Subwoofer mode. Battery power and waterproof design for outdoor events A full battery charge gives you 8 hours of music on the WAVE-EIGHT so you can keep the tunes going throughout the evening and night. The unit is also waterproof, with an IPX4 rating, so it's ideal for using outdoors. And, if you need to charge your phone or another device, you can plug it into the USB Type-C port. Find party venues wherever you go The extendable handle, casters, and additional grab handles make it easy to carry the WAVE-EIGHT to any location on your own. There's a pole socket built-in, too, so you can mount the speaker on a stand for extra height, making it ideal for use in a variety of locations.
