Par BULLA STEPHEN. This gentle, pastorale-style composition portrays the pastel colours of the Arizona desert.

In this piece’s middle section you may sense the calm, slow-riding cowhand returning to the ranch after a long day’s work / Niv…

This piece starts with immediate exhilaration and velocity, and is full of energy, with uplifting syncopated rhythms and strong melodic lines that will engage both the students and audience. The legato section is representative of the time when a skydiver enjoys the beauty of the scenery. The energy and thrill come back and drive to the end with non-stop excitement.

Par CURNOW PAUL. The short suite format gives the arrangement great flexibility of use. Movement 1 (PRAISE TO THE LORD) inspires the listener with elements of a “voluntary” style arrangement while the second movement (HE IS LORD) is steeped in peaceful reverence. The third and final movement is an expression of joyous praise. A LITTLE SUITE PRAISE will do a great deal to enrich the worship experie…

Chaque mouvement de cette composition reflète instrumentalement plusieurs les différentes manières dont la voix humaine produit son et devient un véhicule de communication. Le premier mouvement dépeint un dialogue entre plusieurs groupes représentés par les différentes sections de la bande. Le second mouvement commence tranquillement, la houle à un niveau climatiques, puis conclut avec la tranquil…

An outrage for concert band. Par SPARKE PHILIP. De nombreuses constellations étant nommées d’après des personnages de la mythologie grecque, le compositeur étudia les histoires qui ont donné naissance aux mythes et décida de fonder son oeuvre sur celles-ci. Le sous-titre - Une outrance pour orchestre d’harmonie - provient du fait que les mythes (l’Hydre, Cassiopée, Orion et Pégase) ont uniquement …

Pour Précéder La Péri. Par DUKAS PAUL. Paul Dukas (1865-1935) was a composer who had little self-confidence and was very self-critical. As a result of this he destroyed the manuscripts of all but seven large and five small works. Luckily kept what is now his best know composition, the symphonic scherzo L’apprenti sorcier (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice). He also came very close to destroying the manusc…
