The turbulence and intensity of a major wind storm is effectively recreated in Richard Saucedo's Of Gale Force Winds. Based around rhythmic figures that create a wind-like effect, and combined with a playful melody, the piece alternates between 6/8 and 9/8 staying rhythmically dynamic throughout. A very brief moment of repose hints at the period of calm that comes in the middle or “eye” of bigger storms. The fury of the storm then returns with darker sonorities and increased energy as this descriptive work comes to an exciting conclusion. Duration: 4:00.

Wind Sketches is a top quality concert work for wind band in three movements, inspired by the relationship between man and wind. Trade Winds, in the form of a march, is reminiscent of a shanty, conjuring up seafaring and the tradewinds. Becalmed, harmonically and melodically almost static, depicts the doldrums. All the more contrasting is Riding the Storm, which concerns the love-hate relationship of people to the winds that he needs and at the same times fears.Wind Sketches is een eersteklas concertwerk voor blaasorkest. Het bestaat uit drie delen, die gebaseerd zijn op de relatie tussen de mens en de wind: Trade Winds, in marsvorm, doet denken aan een shanty en roept associaties op met dezee en passaatwinden. Becalmed, dat in melodieus en harmonieus opzicht bijna statisch is, schetst een windstilte. Riding the Storm is stormachtig: het beschrijft de haat-liefdeverhouding tussen de mens en de wind.Wind Sketches ist ein hochkaratiges Konzertwerk fur Blasorchester in drei Satzen, die alle von der Beziehung Mensch und Wind inspiriert sind: Der erste Trade Winds in Marschform erinnert an ein Shanty und an Passatwinde auf hoher See.Der zweite Satz, Becalmed, harmonisch und melodisch fast statisch, beschreibt eine Flaute. Umso kontrastreicher ist der dritte Satz, Riding the Storm, der von der Hassliebe des Menschen des Menschen zu Winden gepragt ist.Les trois mouvements de cette piece s'inspirent des rapports entre les humains et divers types de vents. Le premier, Alizes (Trade Winds), prend la forme d'une marche aux accents de chansons de marins, le deuxieme mouvement, Encalmine(Becalmed ), est de nature quasi statique, sans grand developpement melodique ou harmonique. Le finale, Porte par la tempete (Riding the Storm), depeint les relations humaines, par le biais de vents tumultueux, dangereux, benefiques etvivifiants.I tre movimenti di questo brano si ispirano al rapporto dell'uomo con il vento. Il primo, Trade Winds, prende la forma di una marcia dagli accenti di mare, il secondo movimento, Becalmed, e di natura quasi statica, senza grandi sviluppimelodici o armonici. Il finale, Riding the Storm, descrive i tanti venti tumultuosi, pericolosi, benefici e vigorosi.

Edward Fairlie's Storm and Urge is a significant work for wind band and portrays a journey of emotional turbulence. The title comes from the German “Sturm und Drang,” a literary and musical movement of the late 1700s which focused on extremes of emotion. Opening with a simple and reflective theme, we are then taken through a range of emotional settings from uncertainty to resistance, and then calm resolve and self-knowledge. With a variety of textures and vivid imagery, this is a masterful work for the contemporary ensemble. Duration: 9:00(Recorded by the University of Minnesota Wind Ensemble – Ingrid Martin, conductor).

Snow Suite is the soundtrack to childhood’s winter adventures. Tasting snowflakes, watching a snowstorm through the living room window, or falling in the soft snow is always exciting and sparks the imagination. Each movement of this suite paints a scene. In Snowflakes, the pizzicato notes depict flakes landing on a nose or finger long enough to be marveled at before melting away. Snowstorm’s perpetual motion feel, with dramatic changes in dynamics, draws the listener into imagining wild winter winds. Finally, after the storm, children and adults alike fall into the powdery snow creating charming and delightful Snow Angels.Performance NotesMost students are adept at pizzicato by the grade 1 orchestra level, and this piece provides the opportunity to review pizzicato technique for good tone. Recommended pizzicato technique includes the thick part of the fingertip over the fingerboard, producing tone with depth and allowing the resonance to create a rich orchestra sound. The detaché bowing is truly detached in Snowstorm with contrasting legato bow strokes in Snow Angels.For schools that encourage writing across the curriculum, teachers may encourage students to write a short imaginative story about the snow themes in this music. STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts, and Mathematics) lessons may include snowflake crystal structures and snowstorm weather patterns.

Reflecting the energy and drive of the furious winds of November on Lake Michigan, this original work will resonate with anyone ever caught in a storm. The strong Dutch heritage of West Michigan bestows the name Meer Winden, lake winds in Dutch, and provides a story to the technical and musical elements of the piece. All sections play the melody and the driving accompaniments. Violins and violas use third position; violas and cellos use fourth position. Meer Winden, by Bob Phillips, provides ample opportunity for working on tone within the ensemble.
