AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS Jules Verne's popular 1873 adventure novel, "Around the World in Eighty Days," has inspired countless readers, Grade 3 as well as two motion pictures. The first of these, produced by Michael Todd and released in 1956, featured a score by for Concert Band Victor Young that would earn him his sole Oscar Award (awarded posthumously in 1957) for best motion picture score. This arrangement for concert band by Alfred Reed captures the magical essense of Young's original score. Reed's singular talent for band writing would lead to engagements as staff composer for NBC and ABC television from Victor Young 1948-1953. arranged by Victor Young (August 8, 1900 - November 10, 1956) was born in Chicago into a very musical Jewish family. His Alfred Reed father was a member of Joseph Sheehan’s then-famous touring opera company. The young Victor began playing violin at the age of six, and was sent to Poland when he was ten to stay with his grandfather and study at Warsaw Imperial edited by Conservatory.

Southern Music Company’s edition of Alfred Reed’s arrangement of Victor Young’s main title from Michael Todd’s Academy Award Winning film Around the World in Eighty Days (based on the novel by Jules Verne), is a welcome return to the repertory of the wind band. Long out-of-print, this exquisite arrangement was originally published in march size score and parts, with inadequate rehearsal numbers and an entirely unsatisfactory condensed score. Mark Rogers’ edition of this score preserves all aspects of Young’s lovely, romantic tune in a handsome full score that allows conductors to observe the great skill of Alfred Reed’s lush, colorful setting. Ample opportunities can be found to study style and phrasing from the many available vocal recordings of this melody (featuring lyrics by Harold Adamson). Famous singers who have recorded Around the World include Bing Crosby, Nat King Cole, Ray Conniff, Eddie Fisher, Connie Francis, Bette Midler, Frank Sinatra, and Bobby Vinton. Adult and community bands will welcome this addition to the list of great film music available for performance and public school bands will benefit from the opportunity to play this wonderful, lyrical music. A note about optimal tempo: Victor Young’s tempo as revealed in recordings that he conducted at the time of the film’s debut give a tempo in the range of quarter note at 108 to 116. The composer treats the piece as a moderate tempo waltz in a very graceful style. Later, as this lovely melody entered the world of popular music with the addition of lyrics, the tempo seems to have slowed considerably, as reflected in the printed directive of “Slowly, with great expression” and a metronome marking of quarter note at 72 beats to the minute. We at Southern Music Company believe that the quicker tempo is much more suitable for instrumental performances, but in the event that it might be found possible to include a vocalist in performance, the slower tempo may work quite well.

VICTOR YOUNG

Victor Young was born in Chicago on August 8, 1900, into a very musical Jewish family, his father being a member of one Joseph Sheehan’s touring opera company. The young Victor began playing violin at the age of six, and was sent to Poland when he was ten to stay with his grandfather and study at Warsaw Imperial Conservatory. When he graduated from the Warsaw Conservatory, he was prevented from returning to the US due to World War I. He remained in Poland, which was occupied by the Germans, earning his keep by giving lessons, playing with the Philharmonic, and in a quartet and a quintet. He returned to Chicago in 1920 to join the orchestra at Central Park Casino. He then went to Los Angeles to join his Polish fiancée, finding employment first as a fiddler in impresario Grauman’s Million Dollar Theatre Orchestra. In the mid-1930s he moved to Hollywood where he concentrated on films, recordings of light music and providing backing for popular singers, including Bing Crosby. His composer credits include “When I Fall in Love,” “Around the World,” and other standards. As an occasional bit player, Young can be glimpsed briefly in the film The Country Girl (1954), playing a recording studio leader conducting Bing Crosby while he records “You’ve Got What It Takes.” He received 22 Academy Award nominations for his work in film, twice being nominated four times in a single year, but he did not win during his lifetime. He received his only Oscar posthumously for his score of Around the World in Eighty Days (1956). Thus, Victor Young holds the record for most Oscar nominations before winning the first award. His last scores were for the 1957 films Omar Khayyam, Run of the Arrow, and China Gate, which were released after his death. The latter was left unfinished at the time of his death and was finished by his long-time friend, Max Steiner. Victor Young died at age 56 on November 10, 1956 in Palm Springs, California, after a cerebral hemorrhage.

ALFRED REED

Alfred Reed (January 21, 1921 - September 17, 2005) was a prolific and frequently performed composer and arranger, with more than two hundred published works for concert band, wind ensemble, orchestra, chorus and chamber ensemble to his name. He also traveled extensively as a guest conductor, performing in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia. Reed was born in New York and began his formal music training at the age of ten. During World War II, he served in the 529th Army Air Force Band. Following his military service, he attended the Juilliard School of Music, studying under Vittorio Giannini, after which he was staff composer and arranger first for NBC, then for ABC. In 1953, he became conductor of the Baylor Symphony Orchestra at Baylor University, where he received his B.M in 1955 and M.M. in 1956. His master’s thesis, Rhapsody for Viola and Orchestra, was awarded the Luria Prize in 1959. He was a member of the Beta Tau chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, the national fraternity for men in music. From 1955 to 1966, Alfred Reed was the executive editor of Hansen Publications, a music publisher, also lending his talents to other publishers. It was during this time that his arrangement of Victor Young’s Around the World was written. He was appointed Professor of Music at the University of Miami in 1966. He was chairman of the Department of Music Media and Industry and director of the Music Industry Program at the time of his retirement. He established the very first college-level music business curriculum at the University of Miami, which led other colleges and universities to follow suit. At the time of his death, he had commissions for compositions that would have taken him to the age of 115. Many of Reed’s wind band compositions and arrangements were recorded by the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra under his direction on CDs that are readily available.
