Beginnings and Endings- GT Concert Band and Symphonic Band- April 13, 2014
Beginnings and Endings- GT Concert Band and Symphonic Band- April 13, 2014 Concert Band Chorale and Alleluia- Howard Hanson (1896-1981) Chorale and Alleluia was completed in January 1954, and was Dr. Hanson's first work for symphonic band. It was given its premiere on February 26 at the convention of the American Bandmasters Association at West Point with Colonel William Santelmann, leader of the U.S. Marine Band, conducting. The composition opens with a fine flowing chorale. Soon the joyous Alleluia theme appears and is much in evidence throughout. A bold statement of a new melody makes its appearance in lower brasses in combination with the above themes. The effect is one of cathedral bells, religious exaltation, solemnity, and dignity. The music is impressive, straightforward, and pleasingly non- dissonant, and its resonance and sonority are ideally suited to the medium of the modern symphonic band. Howard Hanson was one of the most important composers and music administrators of the 20th Century. In 1924, he began a 40-year career as Director of the Eastman School of Music at the University of Rochester. It was during Hanson's tenure that Frederick Fennell founded the Eastman Symphonic Wind Ensemble. Hanson was the recipient of many awards for his compositions, including the 1944 Pulitzer Prize for his Symphony No. 4. Bloom- Steven Bryant (b. 1972) Bloom is a celebration of springtime. The bright, sunny days, with nature in bloom all around, give me a powerful sense of well-being, simultaneously tranquil and exuberant. Bloom is my attempt to recreate that feeling. Steven Bryant, the son of a professional trumpeter and music educator, composes music across a variety of media and ensembles, ranging from electronic and electro-acoustic works, to chamber music, to works for wind ensembles and orchestras.
