Music for a Noble Gathering captures the pomp and dignity of a regal celebration. The composition opens with a percussion flourish to a fanfare. Perform this passage at a stately tempo with marked separation. A legato, lyrical theme appears (m. 17) that contrasts the opening passage. Emphasize the ritard and crescendo in m. 24 in preparation for the return of the opening theme (m. 25) that completes the A section. Although thematically related to the fanfare, the B section (m. 35) provides contrast in tempo, key, and style. Strive for a connected and sustained presentation with careful attention to the shaping of the phrases. Proper balance between the melody and countermelody at m. 45 is paramount. The climax in m. 53 quickly subsides but immediately rebuilds for a lively percussion feature. The restatement of the A section (m. 61) leads to a final climax (m. 91), a brief coda (m. 93) and a dynamic closure. William Harbinson is Professor Emeritus and former Dean of the Hayes School of Music at Appalachian State University. He has received nine J.W. Pepper Editors' Choice Awards that identify the very best of the new music available. His compositions for band appear on contest/festival literature lists of several states and are performed worldwide.  .Music for a Noble Gathering captures the pomp and dignity of a regal celebration.

The director and film maker Peider A. Defilla devotes himself to Carl Orff again: WERGO is now going to release his film 'Oedipus der Tyrann' based on a production of the Darmstadt State Theatre. This DVD edition 'Carl Orff' presents a new view of the significant 20th-century composer Carl Orff (1895-1982). - According to the Delphic Oracle, Oedipus, ruler of Thebes, can only save his city from doom if he solves the murder of his predecessor Laius. In the course of the investigation, Oedipus himself is accused of regicide and realises that several years earlier, he unwittingly killed Laius, his own father, and married Jocasta, his mother. Thereupon, Oedipus blinds himself.

This piece is a poetic representation of the ice phenomenon diamond dust. Its light, ponderous beginning exploits the guitar’s delicate timbral qualities, while the second, more aggressive section is quite percussive in texture, depicting the full gamut of elements that constitute this elusive state of ice.
