    A Christmas Festival Adapted for String Orchestra

    CONCERT STRING ORCHESTRA Grade 3½ A Christmas Festival Adapted for String Orchestra LEROY ANDERSON Adapted for String Orchestra by MICHAEL STORY INSTRUMENTATION 1 Conductor 8 1st Violin 8 2nd Violin 5 Viola 5 Cello 5 String Bass PROGRAM NOTES Leroy Anderson was born June 29, 1908 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. As a young boy, his mother taught him to play the organ. He studied at the New England Conservatory of Music. At the age of 17, Anderson enrolled in Harvard University to study German and Scandinavian languages, as well as music. He eventually became fluent in eleven languages. During college, he earned money by playing piano, string bass, and conducting in the Boston area. In his later college years, he directed the Harvard University band. In 1935, Arthur Fiedler hired Anderson to arrange music for the Boston Pops Orchestra, and encouraged him to compose original music as well. His most well known titles are “The Syncopated Clock,” “The Typewriter,” “Bugler’s Holiday,” “Fiddle- Faddle,” “Plink, Plank, Plunk,” and, perhaps his two most famous works, “Sleigh Ride” and “A Christmas Festival.” NOTES TO THE CONDUCTOR A classic holiday masterpiece is now available to string orchestras thanks to this faithful adaptation of the original arrangement as performed by the Boston Pops at its premiere. All of the great melodies are present in this very playable arrangement. Certain to be a spectacular opening or closing piece for holiday concerts year after year! NOTE FROM THE EDITOR All Belwin string parts have been carefully bowed and fingered appropriately by level. The Yellow Very Beginning series includes many bowings as well as reminder fingerings forfirst-time readers.

    CANNON, CAREY JOSEPH, DMA Joseph Willcox Jenkins

    CANNON, CAREY JOSEPH, D.M.A. Joseph Willcox Jenkins: Male Chorus Arrangements of Stephen Collins Foster Melodies. (2012) Directed by Dr. Welborn E. Young. 130 pp. During his tenure as the first arranger for the United States Army Chorus (1956– 1959), Joseph Willcox Jenkins composed and arranged a prolific amount of male choral music, much of which remains unpublished. Outside the circles of the U.S. Army Chorus and Duquesne University, where he was a professor for forty years, much of Jenkins’s music is relatively unknown. His works, however, reflect a commanding knowledge of the male chorus, unique since of style, and creative use of many compositional techniques. Throughout his brief time with the Army Chorus, Jenkins arranged at least 270 pieces and composed a handful of original works. Among these works are fourteen arrangements of Stephen Collins Foster melodies that remain prominent in the ensemble’s performing repertoire to this day. This document presents six performance editions of Jenkins’s fourteen arrangements of the Stephen Collins Foster melodies: “Beautiful Dreamer,” “Camptown Races,” “Nelly Bly,” “Oh Susanna,” “Ring Ring de Banjo,” and “Some Folks.” These arrangements will be compared to the original songs, placed in historical context, and ultimately expand the choices of male choral repertoire. The research undertaken here stimulates the historical research of American male choruses, namely the United States Army Chorus, and provides the possibility for further study of Jenkins’s musical works. Additionally, along with this document, the results of this study were presented in printed performance editions of the selected works and performed in a lecture recital featuring the arrangements.

The primary research contribution of this study was to stylistically analyze, compare and contrast eight pieces composed by Lane during his career, with a focus on discovering the extent to which Lane developed his stylistic features as an adaptable and eclectic composer. Four of these works were completed early in his career during his two-year residency (1959-1961) in Rochester, New York and Lexington, Kentucky as a member of the Young Composers Project (YCP), while the other four works were completed during the last decade of his life (1994-2004). Choral, chamber ensemble, string orchestra and wind band works were selected to represent a broad overview of Lane’s repertoire for each of these four genres, across educational, community, and professional levels.

    Music Written for Bassoon by Bassoonists: an Overview

    Music Written for Bassoon by Bassoonists: An Overview By: Michael Burns Burns, Michael. “Music for Bassoon by Bassoonists an Overview.” The Double Reed, vol. 24-2, 2001. Made available courtesy of International Double Reed Society: http://www.idrs.org/publications/ ***Note: This version of the document is not the copy of record. ***Note: Figures may be missing from this format of the document In his article on the bassoon in the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, William Waterhouse, the prominent British bassoonist and scholar, lists some of the earliest known works written for bassoon1. Several pieces are listed that feature it either as part of an ensemble or in combination with one or two other solo instruments. It is worth noting that the first known composition for the bassoon alone is by a bassoonist, Fantasia per fagotto solo, a set of variations, appears in a collection written by Bertoloméo de Selma y Salaverde, a seventeenth century Spanish monk, bassoonist, and composer who published the Libro de Canzoni, Fantasia e Correnti in Venice in 16382. This work is also notable in that it descends down to a low Bb (Bbl), a note which was not believed to be possible on the instruments of that time, leading to speculation that perhaps he was already using a four-keyed bassoon3. A dedicatory sonnet accompanying the Libro de Canzoni, Fantasie e Correnti praises Selma y Salaverde for his skill on the bassoon4. Bertoloméo was bassoonist to the Archduke Leopold of Austria and the florid variations indicate a high technical proficiency'.5 His Italian contemporary, Giovanni Antonio Berton (1605-1669), was another bassoonist and composer who published a set of nine solo sonatas for bassoon and basso continuo, the Compositioni musicali, in Venice in 1645 with the following preface: I do not consider any less worthy of criticism the person who (because of excessive obstinacy according to the judgment of learned men) refuses to print the fruits of his genius than the one who too brazenly and thoughtlessly publishes his works.
