Gayenah Dance Suite No. 1
Aram Khachaturian/arr. Kenneth Snoeck
Selected from the Gayaneh Ballet, these three colorful examples of Aram Khachaturian’s writing for ballet are based on rhythms and melodic mo-tives from different ethnic groups, ranging from the very Slavic Ukranian “Gopak” (Hopak) to the Armenian “Dance of the Maidens” and the Kurdish “Mountaineers’ Dance.” They vary in instrumental color and tension from festive and party-like, through sultry and romantic, to tense and almost angry. These may be performed in any combination – a single stand-alone dance movement, a contrasting pair, or all three in a complete set. A culturally rich and unique experience for players and audience alike. Dur: 7:45 (Grade 5)

For this impressive work, Johan de Meij draws inspiration from famous paintings found in the Rijksmuseum in his home town of Amsterdam. All three works of art were completed during the “Dutch Golden Age” around 1650. The three movements present a varied mix of styles and moods including a stately procession, a melancholy ballad, and finally a festive celebration and dance.

Dance of the Amazon
Anatoli Liadov/arr. Johan de Meij
Anatoli Liadov (1855-1914) studied at the St. Petersburg Conservatory with Rimsky-Korsakov, among others. Later as a teacher, his pupils included important composers such as Sergei Prokofiev. Through his brilliant orchestration and daring harmonies he further developed aspects previously explored by Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov. The charming Dance of the Amazon, based on two Greek folk melodies, was one of Liadov’s last creations. Dur: 3:25 (Grade 3)

Ch’ella Mi Creda from la fanCiulla del WesT (The GirlofThe Golden WesT)
Giacomo Puccini/arr. Johan de Meij
Although Puccini’s opera The Girl of the Golden West or La Fanciulla
del West became an immediate success in America, the work never
received the same recognition as other works by Puccini. Leaning towards the musical style of Debussy’s impressionism, the opera is immersed in the authentic local color of the American Wild West.
Ch’ella mi creda is the final tenor aria sung by the bandit Ramerrez
before his death sentence. In this arrangement of Johan de Meij, the solo trombone takes over the role of hero Ramerrez as he sings from the hangman’s noose. (Grade 3)

Odysseus and the Sirens
Dana Wilson
The Odyssey was written by Homer about 2700 years ago and tells of
the adventures of the Greek hero Odysseus during his harrowing return trip home after fighting the Trojan Wars. This work is suggestive of his dramatic encounter with the sirens, famous for luring sailors to their death with their beguiling wind-like song. In this descriptive piece you can hear the wind-song becoming evermore insistent, the rocking of the ship, Odysseus’ screams, and finally the sirens plunging to their death as they fail in their attempt to lure Odysseus.

Walking into History (The Clinton 12)
Richard L. Saucedo
In August 1956, Clinton, Tennessee was the the site of one of the most significant events of the American Civil Rights movement as 12 cou-rageous teenagers walked into history becoming the first students to desegregate a state-supported high school in the south. Commissioned by the East Tennessee School Band and Orchestra Association, Richard Saucedo captures the mood of this monumental event along with its sense of anger and frustration, but also with feelings of hope and deter-mination as the nation struggles to defeat bigotry and fear.

An American Fanfare
Rick Kirby
In this dynamic concert opener, Rick Kirby incorporates the normally hymn-like strains of “America (My Country, ’Tis of Thee)” into a fast and energetic fanfare. The actual melody is stated only once in its entirety, and many liberties are taken with both melodic and harmonic elements of the original. Breathtaking!

Southern Hymn
Samuel R. Hazo
Even though the themes used in this beautiful setting are original, it is intended to be played in the style of a slow Southern folk hymn, similar to “Amazing Grace” or “Shenandoah.” Filled with suspensions and resolutions, as well as calm moments and powerfully emotional builds, this is a marvelous work for expanding your ensemble’s stylistic and dynamic range.

American Barndance
Richard L. Saucedo
Rhythmic and energetic, this lively work contains elements of an early American character but also features a poignant, calmer section with a lighter texture and interlaced lyric motifs. The piece builds to a dramatic peak with a powerful and majestic statement by the full ensemble. The final segment, however, becomes more and more frenzied with mixed meters and relentless percussion figures as it races to an exciting conclusion. Filled with humor and creativity, this unique composition will easily find a place in your contest or festival repertoire.
