Maestoso

SKU: KJ.WB388F

The title of Majestica is taken from the word majestic which means having or displaying great dignity or nobility and was inspired by Psalm 8:9. It was composed for the 8th grade band members of the Madison County Central School Band 2006-2007 as an expression of my appreciation for their encouragement and positive impact in my life. It is my hope that Majestica will provide students with a song that they will enjoy learning to play and provide other music educators with a teaching tool that can be used in helping to motivate and encourage their students.

The suite from the cycle 'Ploner Musiktag' (1932) was structured according to the exact instrumentation directions of the composer and completed with a percussion part ad lib. Particular attraction is caused by the different instrumentation of the four movements which, how-ever, takes into consideration the conditions of school practice.

The imagery of a lush, green meadow helps set the stage for Verdant Meadows. This simple, yet harmonically adventurous composition alternates between legato melodies and staccato harmonies. Following a climactic moment, a peaceful resolution hearkens back to earlier material and ends the piece with a Maestoso section.

Alan Lee Silva's Northwestern Skies?is lyrical and fresh,? with his signature open and expressive style. Young string orchestras will sound rich and full with this sweeping composition.
 

From the opening fanfare to the final ensemble gesture, Northwestern Skies is an engaging musical journey with expressive ensemble phrases and challenging section features. The A theme at m. 9, a recurring heroic statement, provides an opportunity to develop solid tone production and intonation in sustained forte passages. The B theme at m. 17, enters quietly and features singing, legato lines and delicate accompaniment. The connected countermelodies in both the A and B sections should be balanced under the main melody. More instrtuments are added to the melody in m. 25, building to the return of the A theme in m. 33.

The lower strings carry the C theme in m. 49, supported by tutti figures in the upper strings. All sections come together in m. 56 to a ritardando into the Maestoso section, setting up a grand ensemble statement in m. 57-58. The moving legatolines at m. 59 and the aggressive figures at m. 61 propel the piece to its final build.

The Coda section at m. 65 begins with a variation of the B melody in the violas and then the violins over a dominant pedal point in the lower strings. Commanding tutti statements of the A theme at m. 69 end the piece with power and excitement.

IN OLD MELBOURNE TOWN depicts the vibrant, dynamic energy of the city after which it is named, Melbourne, Australia. An upbeat, syncopated melody featuring the eight note/quarter note/eighth note rhythm characterizes the Allegro section, which opens after a four-bar Maestosos introduction. A slow, lyrical middle section introduced by the flutes contrasts nicely with the strong, upbeat finish.

Dedicated to the North American Brass Band Association, this is music that is full of energy and dynamic extremes. In form it draws from the overture style, although the themes are self-existing and the piece is programmatic. Working well asa festival opener, it sets a mood of excitement. Following the rhythmic fanfares of the opening, the first theme is presented in the cornets followed by a return to the same rhythmic material. A second theme appears in the horn section and isdeveloped, changing into a darker and sinister form of the same motif. Eventually a Maestoso section is reached, full of sustained block chords in the cornets and trombones, as the rest of the band counters with cascading lines that weavestraight through the brighter instruments.

Dit levendige werk vol dynamische uitersten is opgedragen aan de North American Brass Band Association. Qua vorm is het geënt op de ouverturestijl, hoewel de thema’s op zichzelf staan en het een programmatische compositie betreft. Het is heelgeschikt voor de opening van een festival, want het creëert een enthousiaste, verwachtingsvolle stemming. Na de ritmische fanfares van de opening wordt het eerste thema gepresenteerd in de cornetten, gevolgd door een terugkeer naar hetzelfderitmische materiaal. Er verschijnt een tweede thema in de hoornsectie, dat wordt doorontwikkeld en overgaat in een duistere en onheilspellende vorm van hetzelfde motief. Uiteindelijk komt er een maestoso gedeelte tot stand, vol aangehouden akkoordenin de kornetten en trombones, waarbij de rest van het orkest dalende lijnen produceert die door de helder klinkende instrumenten heen zijn geweven.

Dieses Musikstück, das voller Energie und von extremer Dynamik geprägt ist, wurde der North American Brass Band Association gewidmet. Der formale Aufbau des Werkes orientiert sich an einer Ouvertüre, auch wenn die Themen für sich selbst stehenund das Stück programmatisch ist. Es eignet sich gut als Eröffnungsstück für ein Festival, da es das Publikum begeistern wird. Auf den Fanfarenrhythmus der Einleitung folgt das erste Thema, das von den Kornetten vorgestellt wird und schließlich zumursprünglichen rhythmischen Material zurückkehrt. Das zweite Thema wird von den Hörnern gespielt und weiterentwickelt, wobei das gleiche Motiv in eine dunklere und unheimlichere Stimmung wechselt. Danach erklingt ein Maestoso-Teil mit Akkordblöckenin den Kornetten und Posaunen, während das restliche Orchester kaskadenartige Melodielinien spielt, die sich durch die helleren Instrumente schlängeln.

Dédiée la North American Brass Band Association, cette œuvre est pleine d’énergie et de dynamiques extrêmes. En dépit de sa forme d’ouverture, les thèmes ne sont pas liés et l’œuvre est programme. Convient comme pièce d’ouverture defestival et crée une ambiance d’enthousiasme. Suite aux fanfares rythmiques du début, le premier thème est présenté par les cornets piston, suivi par un retour au même matériel rythmique. Un deuxième thème apparaît dans le registre des cors et estdéveloppé, se changeant en une version plus sombre et sinistre du même motif. Finalement on arrive une section de Maestoso, qui contient de nombreuses double-cordes soutenues chez les cornets et trombones, tandis que le reste de l’ensemblerépond par des lignes descendantes qui se tissent travers les instruments plus aigus.

In Concerto d’Amore, a maestoso opening is followed by a quick and energetic movement that leads to a magnificent adagio. A motif from this adagio can be heard in a swinging movement, after which the piece comes to a close with the return of the adagio. This arrangement for concert band certainly brings this beautiful music to life.

In Concerto d’Amore worden drie verschillende stijlen gecombineerd: barok, pop en jazz. De maestoso introductie van de compositie klinkt als een barokouverture. Dan volgt een energiek gedeelte in popstijl, dat uitmondt in eenadagio. Een motief daaruit is daarna te horen in een swingende passage, waarna het werk besluit met de terugkeer van het adagio in een nieuw jasje.

Concerto d’Amore vereinigt drei unterschiedliche Stile: Barock, Pop und Jazz. Die Maestoso bezeichnete Einleitung der Komposition klingt wie eine barocke Ouvertüre. Es folgt ein energiereicher Abschnitt im Pop-Stil, der wiederum zu einem Adagio führt. Ein Motiv aus diesem Adagio ist in der darauf folgenden Swing-Passage zu hören. Dann kehrt Adagio in neuem Gewand zurück, um das Werk zu beenden.

Concerto d’Amore est composé de trois périodes thématiques aux caractéristiques de la musique baroque, pop et jazz. L’introduction majestueuse, aux allures d’ouverture baroque, chemine vers un passage vif et énergique écrit dans le style de la musique pop. L’adagio qui lui succède progresse vers un passage aux inflexions de swing. Concerto d’Amore se conclut par la reprise du motif de l’adagio dont la forme altérée offre une conclusion brillante cette œuvre richement colorée.

Concerto d’Amore si compone di tre periodi tematici con caratteristiche della musica barocca, pop e jazz. La maestosa introduzione, dagli accenti barocchi, accompagna ad un passaggio vivo ed energico scritto nello stile della musica pop. Segue l’adagio che sviluppa un passaggio dalle inflessioni swing. Concerto d’Amore si conclude con la ripresa del motivo dell’adagio la cui forma alterata offre una conclusione brillante.
