Through variations in tempo and tone, the Symphonic Variants bring forth the sonority of the euphonium and the skills of the soloist. The work begins with an allegro con espressivo statement of the theme and alternates with adagio and allegro con spirito variations. Lento, presto, and pesante treatments add further interest to the composition.

Using a symphonic variant style (like that of Hindemith's Symphonic Metamorphosis), James Curnow has written a magnificent compositional exploration of themes based on the shape-note tune “Resignation.” Advanced groups love to play music at this level of challenge and substance, and directors will appreciate the developmental techniques woven into its fabric. Add a history unit on The Sacred Harp for some cross-curricular work.

This piece is a tribute to the Da Vincian model of creativity. Using a single theme, Larry Clark uses da Vinci's approach to view this theme from every angle. Clark starts with a fanfare, followed by an original theme, then presents a multitude of variations on the themes in different keys, styles and time signatures. You'll find everything from African style to jigs in this incredibly complex piece; well worth the effort for your band.

Never before published! Mahler composed the work at the beginning of 1888 in Leipzig. In 1889 it was subsequently premiered as a symphonic poem in Budapest. Now, Universal Edition is justifiably proud to publish this first score of Titan, the early five-movement version of his Symphony No. 1, in connection with the Complete New Critical Edition. Our first edition of Titan contains the history of its genesis, reviews of the performances in Hamburg and Weimar, a discussion of the programmes and the underlying ideas behind the work, colour prints of important sources, and an extensive critical commentary that describes the variants, problematic passages and all editorial interpolations. (-- Universal Edition) The International Gustav Mahler Society is the academic authority on my grandfather's works, and Universal Edition is his trusted publisher. (-- Marina Mahler).
