Jack Stamp is the Director of
Bands at Indiana University of
Pennsylvania and is a prolific
composer of works for wind
ensemble and band. He wrote this
arrangement of The Star Spangled
Banner as a response to the terrorist
attacks of September 11, 2001. He
subtitles the arrangement ―A Love
Song to Our Country.‖ This is the
first IWS performance of this version
of the National Anthem, and it is the
fourth of Stamp’s compositions to
appear on an IWS concert. His
Cenotaph will be performed in May.
How popular is The Stars and
Stripes Forever? At Munich’s
famed Hofbrauhaus, the house
band plays a familiar work from each
nation that has a contingent among
the well-lubricated patrons, and when
the Americans are invited to stand
and parade the flag, this is the piece
that is chosen. Sousa wrote the march
while aboard a ship bound for New
York from London on Christmas Eve
1896, and a bill signed by President
Reagan made the miniature masterpiece America’s national march. Not
surprisingly, it is the most frequently
performed piece in the history of the
Indiana Wind Symphony; this is the
39th time it has appeared on one of
our concerts.
Candide is an operetta written
by Leonard Bernstein in 1956
that is based on a short story
by Voltaire. It was considered a bust
in its first production, but revivals
were much more successful. The
Overture was premiered as a concert
work on January 26, 1957, by the
New York Philharmonic, with the
composer conducting, and it has
become one of the most performed
works written by an American
composer. The work incorporates
several songs from the operetta –
Glitter and Be Gay, The Best of All
Possible Worlds, Battle Music, and
Oh Happy We. Walter Beeler was the
Director of Bands at Ithaca College
and had Bernstein’s blessing when he
transcribed the work for wind
ensemble in 1960. This is the third
IWS performance of the Overture;
the first was here at St. Luke’s
Methodist in February 2001 with
Charles Conrad conducting.
Only a year after the premiere
of Candide, Broadway welcomed the premiere of
Leonard Bernstein’s most famous
composition, West Side Story. The
lyrics were provided by a 27-year-old
Stephen Sondheim. One of the most
memorable moments was the duet
sung on the fire escape by Maria and
Tony — the Tonight duet. Two longtime St. Luke’s soloists, soprano Ann
Conrad and tenor Ken Knowles, recreate this magical musical moment.
They have sung this work on
numerous occasions with the Indiana
Wind Symphony, the first time in
February 1999 at St. Elizabeth Seton
Catholic Church in Carmel.
French composer Marcel
Dupré garnered his greatest
fame as an organist at St.
Sulpice (recently made famous again
in The Da Vinci Code) in Paris. He
succeeded his teacher Charles-Marie
Widor (whose work will be explored
Bassoonist Tereze "Teri" Inveiss graduated
from Nathan Hale High School in Wisconsin
and then began a varied college education. She
began her studies in music education at the
University
of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee,
but
switched to a music minor. She finished her
undergraduate studies at the University of
Wisconsin-Madison with a Bachelor of Science
in Education for natural science and biology,
with a minor in biology. She went on to receive
her Masters in Education at Indiana University.
Teri began singing at an early age, before looking for her musical voice
in instruments. Starting in fifth grade, she picked up the guitar and then
the clarinet; she began playing the bassoon in the seventh grade. Teri
joined the IWS as a bass clarinetist at the turn of the century and then
switched over to bassoon four years later.
Teri enjoys crafts, teaching, playing old Latvian instruments, and composing. In fact, one of her favorite musical moments was conducting
one of her own compositions in front of an audience of 900 people.
later on this concert) in 1934 and
played there until his death in 1971.
He performed a series of ten recitals
that included the entire organ works
of J.S. Bach — played from memory!
Dupré wrote Poème Héroïque in
1935, and the work was originally
scored for organ soloist, brass ensemble, and percussion. Christopher
Walker prepared the edition for organ
soloist with concert band, and this is
the first IWS performance of the
work.
Dr. H. Owen Reed celebrated
his 100th birthday in Arizona
on June 17, 2010. He wrote
Missouri Shindig in 1951 and
dedicated the work to his parents. He
provides these notes: ―Missouri
Shindig, which is based on an old
square dance tune, Give the Fiddler a
Dram, is the composer’s impression
of a rural Missouri Hoe-Down. As it
opens, there is a gradual development
of excitement as the party gets into
full swing. The square dancers reflect
the various moods of the fiddlers as
they become exhilarated, next clownish, then sentimental. The party is
momentarily interrupted as the tune
How Dry I Am is heard in the
distance; however, it is soon in full
swing again and the dancing is
resumed.‖ Violinist (and flutist) Ann
Mozina is a sophomore at Carmel
High School and is a flute student of
Anne Reynolds. She plays both
piccolo and violin in the New World
Youth Symphony. This is the first
IWS performance of the work, and
the ensemble has previously performed Reed’s most famous works,
La Fiesta Mexicana and Michigan
Morn.
The Barnum is the first of
three marches that were
dedicated to the Barnum &
Bailey Circus and its band, and
tonight we celebrated the bicentennial
of the great America impresario and
circus owner Phineas Taylor Barnum
(1810–1891). John Joseph ―J.J.‖
Richards dedicated the march ―to my
friend Fred Jewell, Bandmaster —
Barnum & Bailey’s Greatest Show on
Earth.‖ Richards served as the solo
cornet under Jewell in 1908 and then
became the bandmaster for the
Ringling Brothers Circus for many
seasons.
Jewell (1875–1936) was from
Worthington, IN, and ran away from
home at the age of 16 to join the
circus as a euphonium player. He rose
through the ranks of circus music to
become the Music Director for
Barnum & Bailey. His music will be
introduced to new generations in
April 2011, when the film Water for
Elephants is released, as it will
contain several Jewell circus compositions. IWS Music Director
Charles Conrad is the circus music
consultant for the film. This is the
first J.J. Richards work to be performed by the IWS.
Charles Edward ―C.E.‖ Duble
was the epitome of a circus
―windjammer.‖ He played
trombone in numerous circus bands
for more than four decades, and he
wrote dozens of circus compositions.
Barnum & Bailey’s Royal Pageant
March is typical of Duble’s dramatic
and spectacular marches. He was
born in Jeffersonville, IN, and was
one of the most important circus
historians of the mid-twentieth century. This is the seventh Duble work
performed by the IWS and this is the
first IWS performance of this march.
Rossini’s last opera, William
Tell, was written in 1829
when the composer was
wildly successful at the age of 37. He
had made a fortune and decided to
retire while he was on top. The
overture to the opera is one of the
most frequently performed overtures,
and the finale will ever be known for
its association with the Lone Ranger.
Michael Jerg stayed very true to the
finale of the overture with his
rollicking Wilhelm Tell Gallop,
written for xylophone soloist with
band.
Dan Marquis became principal percussionist with the Indiana Wind
Symphony this spring, and when he
brought the house down with this
piece in our Independence Day
performance, we knew we must
repeat it on our concert series. Hi-ho
Silver, Away!
Nessun dorma, the most
famous musical moment from
Puccini’s final opera Turadot,
was the musical signature piece of the
great Luciano Pavarotti. Its title is
loosely translated as ―none shall
sleep,‖ and it refers to the upcoming
challenge of riddles that must be
faced by Calif if he is to win the hand
of the Chinese Princess Turandot.
The final word, Vincero, predicts his
success and a happy ending to the
opera.
Ken Knowles is the most frequent
soloist in the 13-year history of the
Indiana Wind Symphony, and he has
sung many memorable performances
of this beautiful aria.
James Barnes is a favorite
composer of the IWS and its
Music
Director
Charles
Conrad, who marvels at the composer’s ability to find new and
effective textures with wind and percussion instruments. The composer
provides these notes: ―Commissioned
by Col. John Bourgeois for the
United States Marine Band, Fantasy
Variations on a Theme by Niccolo
Paganini was premiered by the
Marine Band at the 1988 Music
Educators
National
Conference
Convention in Indianapolis. During
the years following its premiere, the
band performed this work on several
national tours and on its first tour of
Russia.
―The set of twenty variations is
based on the famous theme of
Paganini’s 24th Caprice in a minor
for solo violin, which, of course, is
the same theme used by Brahms and
Rachmaninoff for their famous
compositions, as well as by more
contemporary composers (such as
Lutoslawski and Blacher). For many
years I had intended to write a set of
variations on this clever theme for
wind band, but I was waiting for the
opportunity to write it for a really
superb group of players, so that I
could write whatever I wanted to say
without having to allow for the
limitations of amateur players. When
Col. Bourgeois approached me about
writing a piece for the Marine Band, I
told him on the spot what my plan
was.
―I had been thinking of this piece
and improvising portions of it at the
piano for so long that, when I finally
had the chance to start work on it in
late December 1987, I wrote the
sketches for it in one week. After
completing the piece, I realized why
so many composers had used the
theme.
First,
the
harmonic
progression is much more interesting
than the tune itself, but when put
together, the melody and harmony are
fantastic, and secondly, it is
impossible to get the tune our of your
mind. When working on it, I couldn’t
stop whistling the tune. I would wake
up in the middle of the night and
hurry to write another variation. I
rushed to finish sketching this work
so I could get that silly little tune out
of my head.‖
This is the first IWS performance of
this terrific work, and it joins a long
list of major James Barnes compositions that have been played on the
ensemble’s concert series.
French composer and organist
Charles-Marie Widor lived a
long life in what had to be a
tremendously interesting part of
history,
both
politically
and
musically. He was born in 1844, as
Hoosier native Laura VanderHaeghen began
playing the euphonium in the sixth grade, graduated
from Lafayette Jefferson High School in 2002 where
she studied with Lynn Colwell, and then began
studies at Butler University with Dr. Robert
Grechesky. She joined the IWS in 2006 after
graduating with a Bachelor of Music Education and
has been our principal euphoniumist ever since.
Laura comes from a musical family. Her brother is a freelance bassist in
Chicago, her father was a founding member of a fife and drums corps,
and other members of her family are bassists, percussionists, and
saxophonists. This summer, Laura extended her musical family by
marrying Jacob VanderHaeghen, IWS hornist.
musical Romanticism was becoming
fully formed, and he lived through
the opposing styles of Wagner and
Brahms, through the French impressionism of Debussy and Ravel, and
well into the French modernism of
the composers known as Les Six
(who will be the focus of the March
concert of the IWS). Widor became
the organist at St.-Sulpice in 1870,
and he performed on the magnificent
Cavaille-Coll instrument. He would
remain for 64 years, succeeded by his
student Marcel Dupré. As a composer, Widor wrote in a variety of
genres, including four operas, but he
is primarily known today for his
works for solo organ, and his most
famous composition is the Toccata,
which is the final movement of the
Organ Symphony #5, written in 1887.
This is the first performance of this
work by the Indiana Wind
Symphony.
Karl King is one of the great
American march writers and
bandmasters. When he wrote
what is arguably his most memorable
work, he was just 21 years old and
was a euphonium player in the
Barnum & Bailey Circus Band under
the direction of Edwin ―Ned‖ Brill,
who succeeded Fred Jewell in the
position. Ironically, Brill is the
dedicatee of one of the greatest of
circus marches, yet he was considered
a very poor circus bandmaster, having
spent most of his life playing and
directing Minstrel shows.
Ladies and Gentlemen — Children
of All Ages: We close our concert
with Barnum & Bailey’s Favorite.
This is the sixth IWS performance of
this great classic, and the fifteenth
Karl King work played by the
ensemble.

founded in 1997, has as its mission
the presentation of artistic performances of significant music for band
and wind ensemble to the Central Indiana community. The ensemble is
made up of seventy members and includes professional musicians, music
educators, and serious avocational musicians. The group has presented
American premieres of several important works, including Save the Sea
Symphony, Concerto for Four Saxophones and Band, and Concerto for
Symphonic Band of Hungarian composer Frigyes Hidas; Werner
Bruggemann’s piano concerto Rike; Nocturne by Thomas Doss; and
Hardy Mertens’ Sinfoniches Variaziones. A highlight of the 2005–2006
season was the world premiere of Czech composer Jiri Laburda’s
Symphony #2, and in May 2007, the IWS presented the premiere
performance
of
David
Sartor’s Veni Emmanuel. In
1998, the Indiana Wind
Symphony recorded original
manuscripts from the John
Philip Sousa archives. These
works, featuring soprano
soloist Ann Conrad, were
received with high acclaim
at the international conference of the Society for the
Preservation and Investigation of Band Music
(IGEB) in Banska Bystrica,
Slovakia. The IWS was
featured in a major festival
commemorating the 150th
anniversary of Sousa’s birth
in 2004, and in 2003, participated in the Circus Historical Society’s National Conference,
accompanying scholars Dr. Clifford Watkins and IWS Music Director
Dr. Charles Conrad in historical circus music presentations. In June
2006, the IWS was featured at the Great American Brass Band Festival
and the accompanying Band History Seminar in Danville, KY. The IWS
also performs a series of concerts of wind chamber music and has
presented American and world premieres of chamber works by Daniel
Gall.
