  • Awards to Recognize Individuals Who Have Made Major Contributions to Instrumental Mu- Sic Education
    A W A RDS Each year, The Midwest Clinic presents awards to recognize individuals who have made major contributions to instrumental mu- sic education. The Medal of Honor was introduced in 1962 as a way to honor conductors, educators, composers, and others whose unique service to music education and continuing influence on the development and improvement of bands and orchestras deserve special recognition. Over its fifty-one year history, the Medal of Honor has been presented to ninety-four individuals. The Music Industry Award honors persons for outstanding support of music education through their work in the music industry. This award was introduced in 1991 and has been presented twenty-seven times. In 1992, the International Award was introduced to honor individu- als who contribute to music education from around the globe, reflecting the growth of the Midwest Clinic from an event of national stature to one of international notoriety. The Midwest Clinic is pleased to honor the 2013 recipients of the Medal of Honor, the Music Industry Award and the International Award. MUSIC INDUSTRY AWARD Lamond has dedicated himself to the cause education.

  • Easter 2021 ANOFOB Program
    Welcome to the first ever Australian National Online Festival of Bands. The Band Association of NSW along with our event partners, Besson Buffet Group, Brassbanned.com, OneMusic Australia, Yamaha Music Australia and with the sup- port of CreateNSW are pleased to be hosting this inaugural event. Born out of extraordinary circumstances, I am truly humbled by the response from our Banding community across Australia to this re-styled National festival. With the cancellation of the traditional In-Venue Nationals, which were to be held in Newcastle, the BANSW Management Committee were acutely aware of the im- portance of maintaining a Banding presence over the Easter weekend. Tradition combined with the need to adapt, meant “outside the box” thinking. This resulted in significant simplification of the rules and the creation of a National Online event which would be inclusive and accessible for all Recognising the inability of many bands to have had complete rehearsals while oth- ers had few limits on rehearsals, we created a flexible Festival style event. With few registration and membership requirements bands could participate in whichever events and musical items they were able to present. A reduced minimum member number allow bands with reduced membership to still have a reason to rehearse, and attract players back to band. To this end, with 74 bands from all states and territories, including, the Arafura Wind Ensemble from the Northern Territory, appearing for their first ever National event, and the St Louis Brass Band from the USA, I believe we have absolutely achieved what we set out to. Being online has presented challenges for both Bands and organisers.

  • An Annotated Bibliography of Symphonies for Wind Band
    An Annotated Bibliography of Symphonies for Wind Band by Andrew Donald Pease A Research Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved March 2015 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Gary W. Hill, Chair Wayne Bailey William Reber Rodney Rogers Catherine Saucier ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2015 ABSTRACT This study catalogues symphonies for wind band from the origin of the genre in the late eighteenth century through 2014. Wind bands include any mixed wind group of eight or more players. Works using the word “symphony” or its derivatives in the title are included in the study. A total of 1342 works that fit these criteria were identified. An annotated bibliography (Appendix A) includes detailed information about 695 of these works. Such information was not available for an additional 621 wind band symphonies; consequently, these works are listed in a second appendix that includes a list of sources for each work so that future researchers might investigate them further. The final appendix lists 26 wind band symphonies that are no longer available based on the author’s current sources. The titles included in this study were found by examining many repertoire resources for the wind band, including previous studies of wind band symphonies and more comprehensive repertoire resources like the Heritage Encyclopedia of Band Music and the website “The Wind Repertory Project.” Details of each piece in the annotated bibliography were found in their scores whenever possible. Contact with composers and publishers, through both their websites and direct correspondence, played a major role in this part of the study.

It is an unclassifiable piece and was born from the necessity shown other times by the composer, of combining elements from different musical traditions. In this case, a rock band (electric guitars, electric bass, keyboard and drums) is the main element which con- verses or confronts the symphonic wind ensemble. The intention of the composer is not making Symphonic Rock but the opposite: integrating the tools from other musical styles for getting his own language, an unequivocal personal expression.
