DISTINGUISHED CONCERTS INTERNATIONAL NEW YORK 250 W. 57TH STREET, SUITE 1610 NEW YORK, NY 10107 (212) 707-8566 Notes ON THE PROGRAM PETER ANGLEA Jubilate Deo Born in 1988 In Jubilate Deo Peter Anglea’s ebullient setting of the text (Psalm 100: 1, 2, 5) encapsulates the Psalmist singing praise to God. The mixed meter treatment adds to the vitality of the piece. PABLO CASALS O Vos Omnes Born in 1876; Died in 1973 “O Vos Omnes” is adapted from the Latin Vulgate translation of Lamentations 1:12. It was originally sung as part of Holy Week services in the Roman Catholic liturgy, and was often set, especially in the 16th century, as part of the Tenebrae Responsories. In modern times the text is often sung as a 06-11 DCINY_Carnegie Hall Rental 5/25/16 9:45 AM Page 4 motet. Casals’ treatment utilizes dark coloration through thick textures in the initial TTBB exposition and throughout as alto, then soprano voices are added. Casals also uses pauses for the audience’s contemplation of the Lamentation author’s “sorrow” at the ends of text phrases. WILLIAM BYRD Haec Dies Born in 1540; Died in 1623 “Haec Dies” is an antiphon text associated with Easter Sunday. Byrd’s setting is a delightful six-part treatment that projects a joyful and energetic spirit in the interweaving of the melodic lines. DAN FORREST Psalm 8: Adonai, Adonenu Born in 1978 Dan Forrest’s setting of Psalm 8 begins with the ethereal sound of pianissimo expressions of awe in the voices and harmonics in the violin. The piece develops into sweeping phrases with massive crescendos before settling back into an attitude of prayer at the conclusion. ANDRÉ THOMAS Gloria Born in 1952 André Thomas’ “Gloria” is a gospel-style setting of the text from the Ordinary of the Mass. Thomas utilizes movement and clapping as well as vocal idioms like slides. JOHN PHILIP SOUSA Fairest of the Fair Born in 1854; Died in 1932 John Philip Sousa, the American March King, composed prolifically at the turn of the 20th century. His influence in music made a lasting impact on the future of American marching and concert bands, as well as bands around the world. Fairest of the Fair was inspired by the memory of a beautiful girl he met at a fair. Its melodic content makes this March one of his finest. PIERRE LA PLANTE A Walk in the Morning Sun Born in 1943 The composer writes, “While growing up in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin, in the 1950s, some of the first orchestral music I heard was written by Leroy Anderson. Although Leroy Anderson had been composing since the 1930s, this was the first time when he was experiencing his greatest commercial success, and his orchestral miniatures were a staple on WDOR.” He states, 06-11 DCINY_Carnegie Hall Rental 5/25/16 9:45 AM Page 5 “A Walk in the Morning Sun is a ‘tip of the hat’ to Leroy Anderson’s unique style and contribution to American Music.” GUSTAV HOLST Second Suite in F for Military Band, Op. 28, No. 2 (Mov. I, II, & IV) Born in 1874; Died in 1934 Gustav Holst may be best known for his orchestral work The Planets, but he also made an indelible impact in the world of concert band music. Holst’s Second Suite was composed two years after his Suite No. 1 for Wind Band. Both works may very well be pointed out as some of the earliest wind ensemble literature to gain respect as significant. His experience playing trombone is quite evident in his writing of this work, which often uses the low brass as a vehicle for melodic content. Ironically though completed in 1911, it was not premiered until 1922, due to distraction by other projects he was working on. In his Second Suite, Holst used seven Hampshire folk songs as the foundation of the piece. The first movement, March, features the Euphonium playing the folk song “Swansea Town.” In the second half of the movement the woodwinds begin a light 6/8 section that leads to a reprise of the first half in its entirety. Song without Words, the second movement of the Suite, uses the folk song “I’ll Love my Love” as its thematic material. The movement begins with a clarinet solo that develops into a full band sound, before descending through the woodwinds into the tenor brass, and its final descent into a solo tuba. In the final movement, Fantasy on the Dargason, Holst uses the instrumentation of the wind band to its fullest potential with nearly every section featured at some point. Beginning with a solo saxophone, the work uses the familiar tune of “Greensleeves” in the middle as its main theme. After fully developing the movement, Holst reduces the instrumentation to an unlikely duet between the piccolo and the tuba. ROSSANO GALANTE A Childhood Remembered Born in 1967 Rossano Gallante is best known for his work as a film composer, but more recently has also composed a number of works for concert band. Rossano writes, “This light, lyrical composition captures youth and innocence through the eyes of a child. Playful melodic lines interspersed with more lyrical, lush sonorities will take audiences back to that simple time of their childhood.” A Childhood Remembered was commissioned by, and dedicated to, the Hofstra University Symphonic Band, Dr. Peter Boonshaft, director. 06-11 DCINY_Carnegie Hall Rental 5/25/16 9:45 AM Page 6 WILLIAM FRANCIS MCBETH Canto, Op. 61 Born in 1933; Died in 2012 One of the most influential composers of the 20th century, William Francis McBeth was best known for his “pyramid of sound” concept, which is consistently demonstrated throughout his works. In Canto, McBeth used a number of unique devices such as clapping and “pitched blocks of wood” to make the piece come alive. McBeth uses the folk song melody “Sakura” as a foundation throughout this piece. Tonight’s performance is conducted by assistant director, Nathan Williams. RANDALL D. STANDRIDGE Imaginarium Born in 1976 The composer writes, “Inside every person, there is a place where creativity dwells. Gears turn, dreams flow, and ideas spark into life. This idea-factory or ‘Imaginarium’ is the place that every creative person goes to, again and again, to find their muse, flesh out ideas, and to exert change on the world around them. This piece is dedicated to all of the dreamers who see more in the world than is actually there, who see possibilities where others see only dead ends, and who believe in creation rather than destruction. This one’s for you.” Imaginarium was commissioned by the Association of Texas Small School Bands for our All-State Concert Band in 2015. It is comprised of four sections: “Sparks,” where ideas begin to germinate; “The Cloud Factory,” which represents the day dreamy zone where one imagines endless possibilities (with my best nod Eric Satie as well); “Here, There be Monsters…” is that moment of panic or nightmare that all creative people feel when self-doubt sets in and the task seems too monumental to overcome; a brief recapitulation to “Sparks” before “Eureka!”—the idea is fully realized! NIKOLAI RIMSKY-KORSAKOV Russian Easter Festival Overture Born in 1844; Died in 1908 Rimsky-Korsakov dedicated this piece to Modest Mussorgsky and Alexander Borodin, two composers who, with Rimsky-Korsakov, Mily Balakirev, and César Cui, made up “The Five,” a group of Russian composers dedicated to establishing a distinct Russian style within the traditions of Western classical music. Through Rimsky-Korsakov’s use of melodies from the Obikhod, a collection of chants from the Russian Orthodox liturgy, the Russian flavor of this work is prominent, with RimskyKorsakov describing it in his memoirs: “…[reminiscent] of the ancient prophecy, of the gospel narrative, and also a general picture of the Easter service with its pagan merrymaking.” 06-11 DCINY_Carnegie Hall Rental 5/25/16 9:45 AM Page 7 LEONARD BERNSTEIN Overture to Candide Born in 1918; Died in 1990 Based on Voltaire’s 1758 novella Candide: or, All for the Best, Berstein’s operetta Candide opened to mixed reviews and closed shortly thereafter. Voltaire’s satirical novella unabashedly explored the excesses of the Catholic Church’s Inquisition, and Lillian Hellman’s libretto was seen as a thinly masked attack on the House Un-American Activities Committee. While the original overture was composed for a smaller ensemble, the later scoring performed here for full orchestra has become one of Berstein’s most well-known and often performed pieces. Weaving together melodies from throughout the operetta with musical jokes, this overture has become a favorite not only to hear, but to perform, as well. JOHN WILLIAMS The Cowboys Overture Born in 1932 There are few orchestras as iconically American as the Boston Pops Orchestra, and when John Williams succeeded Arthur Fiedler as its principal conductor in 1980, he wanted to open his first concert with an original piece. Williams had composed a score for the 1972 John Wayne film The Cowboys, which painted a picture of the trials and adventures of a ragtag group of youth under the tutelage of Wayne’s character on a 400-mile cattle drive. Taking the melodies from that score, Williams constructed a traditional orchestra overture that began his lasting association with Boston Pops. TETSUYA IMAI Saika kokoro (Mind of Brilliant Festival) Imagine a scene of the rough waves of the Sea of Japan surrounding Noto peninsula, Ishikawa prefecture, Japan. TETSUYA IMAI Kofuu mai (Blast Dance) Dance as the wind blows to the beat of the Taiko drums. TETSUYA IMAI Wajima Taisai (Wajima Grand Festival) This work is traditionally performed at the Wajima festival, and has been arranged for stage performance. TETSUYA IMAI Meoto hisashi (Longevity Couple) This composition is merry music, and indispensable for celebrations. 06-11 DCINY_Carnegie Hall Rental 5/25/16 9:45 AM Page 8 ERIC EWAZEN Fantasia for Taiko and Orchestra (NY Premiere) Born in 1954 In 2013 world renowned American-born composer Eric Ewazen accepted a commission from the Colorado Springs Youth Symphony to compose a work for taiko drum ensemble and full orchestra. Fantasia was premiered during the group’s tour of Japan in 2014. Tonight’s performance represents the North American premiere, and includes the appearance of Wajima Wadaiko Toranosuke from Wajima, Japan, who performed the world premiere. Composed in a concerto grosso style, the work melds the percussive power of taiko with the tonality of an orchestra. Texts AND Translations Jubilate Deo PETER ANGLEA (b. 1988) Jubilate Deo, omnis terra; servite Domino in laetitia, Introtie in conspectus ejus in exultation. Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. Serve the LORD with gladness: come before His presence with singing. Quoniam suavis est Dominus: in aeternum Misericordia ejus, et usque in generationem et generationem veritas ejus. For the LORD is good, His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endureth to all generations. O Vos Omnes PABLO CASALS (1876–1973) O vos omnes qui transities per viam: attendite et videte si est dolor, sicut dolor meus. O, all ye who pass by on the road before me: behold and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow. Haec Dies WILLIAM BYRD (1540–1623) Haec dies quam fecit Dominus: Exultemus et laetemur in ea. Alleluia! This is the day which the Lord hath made: Let us be glad and rejoice therein. Praise the Lord! Psalm 8: Adonai, Adonenu DAN FORREST (b. 1978) Adonai, Adonenu, O Lord, our Lord how majestic is Your name in all the earth! When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and stars that You have set in place, 06-11 DCINY_Carnegie Hall Rental 5/25/16 9:45 AM Page 9 What are mortals? What are mortals that You care for them, O Lord? O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the Earth! Adonai, Adonenu.

We praise Thee, we bless Thee, we adore Thee, we glorify Thee, We give thanks to Thee for Thy great Glory. Lord God, King of heaven, Father Almighty One. Glory be to Jesus Christ, Lamb of God, the Father’s only Son. Oh Thou who takes away all the sins of the world, have mercy on us. Receive our prayers. Thou who sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty in heaven, have mercy on us. For only Thou art holy, only Thou art the Lord, only Thou art the most high. In the name of the Father, in the name of the Son, in the name of the Holy Ghost, In the glory of the Father, Amen.
