Zion is the third and final installment of a series of works for Wind Ensemble inspired by national parks in the western United States, collectively called Three Places in the West. As in the other two works (The Yellowstone Fires and Arches), it is my intention to convey more an impression of the feelings I've had in Zion National Park in Utah than an attempt at pictorial description. Zion is a place with unrivalled natural grandeur, being a sort of huge box canyon in which the traveler is constantly overwhelmed by towering rock walls on every side of him -- but it is also a place with a human history, having been inhabited by several tribes of native Americans before the arrival of the Mormon settlers in the mid-19th century. By the time the Mormons reached Utah, they had been driven all the way from New York State through Ohio and, with tragic losses, through Missouri. They saw Utah in general as a place nobody wanted, but they were nonetheless determined to keep it to themselves. Although Zion Canyon was never a Mormon Stronghold, the people who reached it and claimed it (and gave it its present name) had been through extreme trials. It is the religious fervor of these persecuted people that I was able to draw upon in creating Zion as a piece of music. There are two quoted hymns in the work: Zion's Walls (which Aaron Copland adapted to his own purposes in both is Old American Songs and the opera The Tender Land) and Zion's Security, which I found in the same volume in which Copland found Zion's Walls -- that inexhaustible storehouse of 19th-century hymnody called The Sacred Harp. My work opens with a three-verse setting of Zion's Security, a stern tune in F-sharp minor which is full of resolve. (The words of this hymn are resolute and strong, rallying the faithful to be firm, and describing the city of our God they hope to establish). This melody alternates with a fanfare tune, whose origins will be revealed in later music, until the second half of the piece begins: a driving rhythmic ostinato based on a 3/4-4/4 alternating meter scheme. This pauses at its height to restate Zion's Security one more time, in a rather obscure setting surrounded by freely shifting patterns in the flutes, clarinets, and percussion -- until the sun warms the ground sufficiently for the second hymn to appear. Zion's Walls is set in 7/8, unlike Copland's 9/8-6/8 meters (the original is quite strange, and doesn't really fit any constant meter), and is introduced by a warm horn solo. The two hymns vie for attention from here to the end of the piece, with the glowingly optimistic Zion's Walls finally achieving prominence. The work ends with a sense of triumph and unbreakable spirit. Zion was commissioned in 1994 by the wind ensembles of the University of Texas at Arlington, the University of Texas at Austin, and the University of Oklahoma. It is dedicated to the memory of Aaron Copland.

As the title suggests, this piece comprises a set of variations on an original chorale,which is presented in the opening bars.The chorale uses the dark middle and lower sections of the band and is extended with minor variations until a pause leads to the first real variation, marked Vivo. This is in the form of a moto perpetuo. The second variation is a beautiful Andante introduced by a solo clarinet. Following a full band climax the final variation opens with quiet, nervous energy until its main theme is introduced.The chorale makes a brief appearance until the main theme reappears. This leads to a triumphant final augmented statement of the chorale theme, decorated by theflorid clarinet theme in the upper woodwinds. A dazzling new concert work.

Zoals de titel al aangeeft, bestaat het stuk uit een aantal variaties op een oorspronkelijk koraal, dat aan het begin wordt ge ntroduceerd. Het koraal, stevig verankerd in c mineur, komt naar voren in de donkere midden- en lage sectiesvan het orkest en wordt uitgebouwd met variaties in mineur, totdat een korte pauze de overgang vormt naar de eerste echte variatie, Vivo getiteld. Dit is een moto perpetuo. De tweede variatie, een krachtige Andante, introduceerteen soloklarinet. Na een climax in het hele orkest vangt de laatste variatie aan met een stille, nerveuze energie totdat het hoofdthema naar voren komt. Het koraal duikt even op totdat het hoofdthema weer verschijnt. Dit leidtnaar een glorierijke laatste reprise van het koraalthema in verbreding, omspeeld met het zwierige klarinetthema in het hoge hout. Een verbluffend nieuw concertwerk.

In drei sehr unterschiedlichen Variationen kommen in diesem Werk alle Register des Blasorchesters zum Zug: Die mittleren und tieferen Register stellen den originalen Choral in Moll vor, darauf folgt die erste, lyrische Variation im Tenorregister. Eine Solo-Klarinette präsentiert die metrische zweite Variation, abgelöst vom gesamten Blasorchester. Die hohen Holzbläser spielen eine wichtige Rolle in der dritten Variation, die zunächst verhalten einsetzt, dann aber das Werk zu einem triiumphalen Schluss führt. Ein interessantes Werk, das keine Wünsche bei Musikern oder Zuhörern offen lässt!

Chorale and Variations est une oeuvre de commande pour l’École Intercommunale de Gaillon Aubevoye en France (Dir. : Thierry Patel). Cette pièce est structurée selon la forme du choral suivi de trois variations sur le thème. Ancré dans la tonalité de Do mineur, le choral se développe dans les registres médium et grave de l’orchestre puis est élargi avec une succession de variations lyriques, florissantes, triomphantes et ornementées.

Solar Flare, by Tyler Arcari, depicts the huge explosion on the Sun that appears as a sudden bright flash. The piece incorporates a whirlwind of mixed meters to?depict this phenomenon. Arcari showcases his fresh, exciting, and well-scored compositional style in this piece. Solar Flare makes for? an excellent concert opener.
A solar flare is a huge explosion on the sun that appears as a sudden increase in brightness or flash. Sometimes these explosions push large amounts of energy and even parts of the sun flying out into space. These events can be so powerful that they cause events on Earth such as auroras, as well as more serious issues like disrupting radio and electronic instruments. To our naked eye, these dangerous explosions are beautiful and quiet. The celestial is a fascinating place, hopefully captured in some small part by this work. About the Work: Solar Flare began as a piece with two goals: to write a space piece in 7/8 and to write a teaching 7/8 space piece. The piece uses a 2-2-3 pattern, so using this in pre-performance warm-ups might be beneficial. The piece is loosely based on a minor second descending to a minor third. This motif is used at the onset of the piece in the mallet percussion and then again in the woodwinds. The melody presents itself at m. 19 in the clarinets. This melodic material is varied and traded throughout the instrument groups until m.67. Measures 6972 should be treated as a transitional fanfare to the new material at m. 73. Measures 99115 to the end of the piece feature a style similar to the beginning that helps to transition to m. 115, which is the climax of the work. An ostinato pattern (2-2-3) is presented with fragments of the melody appearing in the alto voices. This momentum culminates in a large, abrasive area at m. 125 where the suspension-resolution in the brass and horn melodic fragment need to be the focus. This momentum continuously grows until the last note where we resolve finally. Care should be taken that the ^ accent on the final note is one meant to be played heavy, and not short.

In July of 2016, the NASA space probe Juno completed a 5 year journey to Jupiter. The concert piece Journey of the Juno is named for this event. It is a mysterious piece in C minor intended to convey the vastness of outer space. Composer Joseph Compello consistently delivers music that both intrigues students and contains many teachable moments.
