This impression of the hustle and bustle of a busy city day and one's chase to accomplish their daily goals offers many opportunities for the development of the performer's musical skills. Starting aggressively before moving to a short reflective section, one can easily see the day unfolding.Balance between the percussion section and ensemble is essential to an accurate performance of City Chase. Careful attention to ensure that the melodic lines are heard and not covered by accompaniment will bring the composition to life. It is important to maintain the stylistic difference between staccato and legato lines so that the contrasts can be heard.I hope you enjoy your own chase through the city!

Personal Note My high school band director, Clarence F. Wroblewski, died on November 24, 2018. In the 1950s, he was a pioneer in the field of public school instrumental music in Baltimore City. He was my mentor and my dear friend. It was his guidance and encouragement that set my young life's course on the path of music. Performance Notes The idea for Ghost Chasers is to have a spooky tune (m. 9, Trumpets) chasing around in simple counterpoint between two sections. (See m. 19). Students will find the independent part playing both challenging and fun. In the contrasting section at m. 30, young students will gain experience in changing their articulation from marcato to legato. Obeying the cues for low brass in this section is recommended, but depending on the instrumentation of the band, directors may disregard the cues if necessary. Directors may also wish to take the opportunity to teach a lesson about major and minor keys and discuss why the tune at m. 9 sounds spooky and the theme at m. 30 sound lighthearted. Overall, the main challenge for this piece is balance. For the chaser idea to be effective the half-measure lag between the two sections playing the same tune must be easily heard. Even more attention to balance must be paid at m. 45, where the spooky theme is added to the chasing theme. If Clarinets can play third-line written D, use it instead of the alternate cued note. If three Timpani are not available, omit the note D.Personal NoteMy high school band director, Clarence F. Wroblewski, died on November 24, 2018.

Making it in music has never been easy, but today it's harder than ever before. The digital age has dawned and, with it, the music biz has wholly merged with the entertainment industry. Up-and-comers are immediately faced with a dire choice: alter your art to appease the powers that be or learn to navigate the notoriously grimy underside of the most glamorous profession in the world. Whether you're a self-reliant DIY musician or an aspiring personal manager, Stephen Marcone and David Philp's Managing Your Band -Artist Management: The Ultimate Responsibility can help you keep your shirt and maybe - just maybe - make a buck, all for less than the price of a decent dinner. Now in its sixth edition, Managing Your Band has long since been the standard bearer for aspirants and hardened vets alike. From dive bars to festivals, from branding and merchandising to marketing and publicity, from publishing and licensing to rights and contracts, Marcone and Philp leave no stone unturned in this comprehensive guide to artist management. A lofty claim, eh? No need to take our word for it - luminaries in every corner of the industry are willing to testify. To put it mildly, the book has a reputation with record labels. John Butler, Vice President of Promotion at Curb, believes that Marcone and Philp take on our ever-changing business with a fresh and complete approach. The breadth of information here is as important to veterans as it is to the new entrepreneurs that will power the current and next versions of the music industry. Paul Sinclair, the EVP of Digital Strategy & Innovation at Atlantic, attests that the 6th edition of Managing Your Band provides an excellent blueprint to follow paths of flexibility and specificity toward a successful career in music. In this book, you find the framework. Implement it well and you have a better shot of finding success with your musical art. Joe Riccitelli, the EVP/GM of RCA, considers the book a must for new and established managers who may need a brush-up on topics they have forgotten, as Stephen's & David's vast experience pays off in the 6th edition. Hell, this is the only book music mogul Harvey Leeds took to Israel to teach the Israelis about the international music and entertainment business! In the end, we think Doc McGhee, the man who whisked Bon Jovi and Motley Crue to superstardom, says it best: I wish I had something like this when I was starting out! What more can we say? Pick up the latest edition of Managing Your Band and chase that wild dream!

Invictus: A Passion addresses one of the world’s most powerful stories through the lens of the modern world. The texts, written or inspired by women, describe not only human suffering and persecution but also the human capacity for love and humility in the face of tyranny. Composer Howard Goodall is uniquely suited to bring these texts to life with music of emotional clarity and sweeping force. This excerpt is scored for soprano solo, SATB choir and piano. This fourth movement of the larger work is inspired by the extraordinary story of Irena Sendler née Krzyżanowska, a Polish nurse and head of Å»egota, the Polish Council to Aid Jews in the Second World War, whose personal interventions saved the lives of approximately 2,500 Jewish children in the Warsaw Ghetto, smuggling them to safety, acts of humanitarian bravery that eventually caused her arrest and torture by the Gestapo. She is honoured as Righteous Amongst the Nations at Yad Vashem, Jerusalem. The Latin texts of this movement are taken from the Book of Lamentations (“My eye hath run down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people. My enemies have chased me and caught me like a bird, without cause…â€) and from Psalm 142, the Old Testament being the meeting-point of Sendler’s Catholicism and the Jewish tradition of those whose lives she saved. Duration 6:19.
