  • ABSTRACT Sunshower a Symphonic Poem for Wind Ensemble Jordan R
    ABSTRACT Sunshower A Symphonic Poem for Wind Ensemble Jordan R. Tucker, M.M. Mentor: Scott McAllister, D.M.A. Composed in the programmatic spirit of standard wind ensemble works such as H. Owen Reed’s La Fiesta Mexicana, Winds of Nagual by Michael Colgrass, and Alfred Reed’s Armenian Dances, Sunshower is an exploration in sonoristic composition and a tribute to the classic wind ensemble. Utilizing a large ensemble, this four-movement symphonic poem was begun in June of 2016 and was completed in February of 2017. With the intention of creating the aural and sensational atmosphere of a sun-shower, my ultimate goal was to share a work that is both programmatic in its connection to the listeners, and depicts a unique, modern, and human experience. By establishing an aural connection between the wind ensemble and this fascinating weather pattern, the music is able to unify audience members in an acoustic environment, allow them to embrace new sensations of expression, and demonstrate the textural possibilities within the world of wind ensemble composition.

Inspired by the language, rhythm, and spirit of Hughes' poetry, composer Libby Larsen has written Sun Song in response to the major contribution that Langston Hughes made to American culture. A major figure of the Harlem Renaissance in the 1920's Langston Hughes entitled his first book of poems, The Weary Blues, taking its name from a prize-winning poem in the magazine, Opportunity. Hughes was awarded a scholarship to Lincoln University in Pennsylvania where he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1929. He was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship (1935), a Rosenwald Fellowship (1940) and an American Academy of Arts and Letters Grant (1947).

An aural conception is the subject upon which the music is commenting; sight (subject) through sound.

Electric Horizons: Advancing the Wind Band in Modern Art Music A research project by Joseph R. Bozich Introduction The dominance of the Symphony Orchestra in Western Art Music is a fact clear by even the most superficial observation. The best classical performers of today and yesterday have been judged in part by which orchestras they have performed solo with, which large orchestral concertis they have tackled, and which conductors they have collaborated with. For better or worse, "classical" and "orchestral" music are essentially synonymous for a great portion of the population, and the great majority of classical masterworks known to the larger population—the opening of Beethoven's 5th Symphony, the "Ode to Joy" from Beethoven's 9th Symphony, the Adagietto from Mahler's 5th Symphony—are (as their names would suggest) symphonic in scope. In recent decades, the Wind Ensemble as a form of high-level music-making, mostly in the music schools of large universities.
