White Plains, Winter Nights

As September Ends

Beethoven's 5th Symphony

Kolokol

Pi

  • Anacrusis

    In music, the anacrusis is the note or sequence of notes which precedes the first downbeat in a bar. This exciting work has pick-up notes throughout. In a lilting three, the piece will excite your students and the audience too. The piece features a flute solo during the middle lyrical section.

    (Listen) (Sample Score)

  • Simian Saga

    Simian Saga: It is morning on the African savannah and all is peaceful. Peace is then broken when the cheetahs attack a tribe of chimpanzees. After the initial mayhem, the chimpanzees regroup, defend themselves, and emerge victorious.

    (Listen) (sample score)

  • White Plains, Winter Nights

    White Plains, Winter Nights depicts freshly fallen snow on an expansive open plain. Picturesque colors in the band give the aural illusion of this icy wonderland. This is an interesting piece for the middle of a concert.

     (Listen) (Sample Score)

  • As September Ends

    As September Ends is a tribute to the men, women and children who lost their lives on 9/11 as well as the brave people who gave their lives and the heroes that responded to the emergency. This piece speaks to the strength and perseverance of our country during the tumultuous time, and the ability to move past September and emerge a stronger nation.

  • Beethoven's 5th Symphony

    Beethoven's 5th is a medley comprised of melodies from all four movements of Beethoven's 5th Symphony. This piece affords an excellent opportunity to acquaint students and audiences both with the entire symphony.

    (Listen)

  • Kolokol

    Russian for bells, this piece depicts a quiet Russian morning and the bells chiming in the distance.  Unlike western bells that are tuned at the octave, Russian bells are tuned at a 7th

    (Listen)

  • Pi

    Based on the mathmetical concept of Pi, the melody is derived from that sequence as used on a scale. Piece also has a short around the circle of 5ths and the middle section is of course in a round.  Quirky little piece that your kids are sure to enjoy.
