Zarabanda. (Xylophone/Marimba Feature). By Joseph Turrin (1947-). For Soloist(s) with Concert Band (Solo Percussion, Piccolo, Flute 1-2, Oboe 1-2, Bassoon 1-2, Clarinet in Eb, Clarinet in Bb 1-3, Bass Clarinet, Alto Saxophone 1-2, Tenor Saxophone, Baritone Saxophone, Horn in F 1-4, Trumpet in Bb 1-5, Trombone 1-3, Euphonium, Tuba, Contrabass, Percussion). Grade 4. Score only. Duration 5:00. Published by C. Alan Publications (CN.16431). The piece is in several sections with a Latin style rhythm that occasionally gets interrupted by accented outbursts from the ensemble. As the piece develops and moves from section to section, new rhythmic and melodic ideas are introduced. The piece culminates with a bravura mallet cadenza and an optional cadenza, which calls for the additional skills of playing the timbales, bongos, tom-toms, and conga drum. I composed Zarabanda for a Latin American recording project with RCA Records and percussionist Evelyn Glennie. Although the recording project was never realized by RCA, I decided that the work would make a wonderful vehicle for Ms. Glennie along with wind ensemble accompaniment. The piece is in several sections with a Latin style rhythm that occasionally gets interrupted by accented outbursts from the ensemble. The soloist alternates between the xylophone, for the more accented staccato passages and scales, and the marimba, for the more melodic material. As the piece develops and moves from section to section, new rhythmic and melodic ideas are introduced. The piece culminates with a bravura cadenza - the soloist performing rapid-fire staccatos and scales on the xylophone. There is also an optional cadenza, which calls for the additional skills of playing the timbales, bongos, tom-toms, and conga drum. The piece concludes with a quick coda as the solo xylophone and ensemble build a fiery rhythmic syncopation. There are more rapidly accented staccatos, a quick scale, and the final bar. The zarabanda is a late 16th and 17th century Spanish dance in a lively alternating 6/8 and 3/4 time. Some evidence suggests that the zarabanda originated in the Spanish colonies in America, making it the first popular Latin American dance. Other evidence seems to suggest an African origin. A possible scenario might be that the zarabanda was brought to Spain by the Moors during the 12th Century, but was heavily modified by American influences during the early 16th Century. The zarabanda and its French descendant, the sarabande, were very different dances. While the French dance was a slow dance in 3/4 time, the Spanish original was very lively, alternating between 6/8 and 3/4 time. In the beginning, the zarabanda was considered very indecent. Cervantes writes about the "diabolic zarabanda" in one of his short stories, and in 1583, a law was passed against singing the zarabanda. The penalties for breaking it were banishment for women and 200 whiplashes and 6 years of galley service for men.

Young Wizards by Bruce Fraser. For Concert Band (1st Flute, 2nd Flute, Oboe*, 1st Bb Clarinet, 2nd Bb Clarinet, 3rd Bb Clarinet, Bb Bass Clarinet*, Bassoon*, 1st Eb Alto Saxophone*, 2nd Eb Alto Saxophone*, Bb Tenor Saxophone*, Eb Baritone Saxophone*, 1st Bb Trumpet, 2nd Bb Trumpet, 3rd Bb Trumpet, 1st F). Band Music. Grade 3. Score and parts. Duration 8:00. Published by C. Alan Publications (CN.R10244). This three movement suite was inspired by the composer's reading of Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone.The work is based on a tone row taken from the musical letters contained within the title. "Black Pointed Hats" in D minor sets the scene, with the bass instruments playing an accented form of the tone row. Note clusters and chromatic movement help to create the mysterious sound palette for listeners to let their imagination run riot. The contrary motion in the upper woodwinds at the beginning of "Spells" gives a mesmerizing effect. The third movement, "Flying Broomsticks," evokes the image of young wizards flying around, using chromatic runs and various accented sections where the flying is not so smooth. Both themes used in this movement combine to form a grand flypast!
