Concert Band Score & Parts

Gershwin referred to the second Prelude as ‘a sort of blues lullaby’ due to its distinct flavor of jazz. The harmonies and melodies are built on thirds, emphasizing both the interval of the seventh and the major/minor duality of the blues scale.

Prelude No. 2

Promenade for solo clarinet with concert band was originally published in 1960 as a piano composition (it never had lyrics by Ira Gershwin).

Promenade (Walking The Dog)

This epic march is one of the most performed world-wide by bands as well as by orchestras. It owes much of its fame to the introductory clarinet solo and well as some demanding woodwind passages and unusual dynamics throughout.

Entry of the Boyars

Halvorsen considered his Norwegian Fairy Tale Pictures to be one of his best works. The suite is colorful and vividly programmatic, drawn from music that Halvorsen had written for a children’s comedy.

In the first movement of the suite, Peik, the Princess and the Giant Troll, clarinets portray the fairy tale hero, a boy named Peik; flutes play the part of the abducted princess; while the villainous troll is represented by a scary motif in the bass.

Opie - University of Maine Stein Song

Two Nordic Melodies of 1895 came about after Grieg received a musical motif in folksong style from a Swedish-Norwegian diplomat who enjoyed being a part-time composer. Grieg made use of the motif as his own and developed it into a lengthy piece for string orchestra.

The Coronation March was composed for military band. Later, Svendsen orchestrated the march for symphony orchestra. It was received enthusiastically when played in London. The wind band version presented here is a transcription of the orchestral score.

Coronation March

Implausible March was written as an ironic piece for wind band, showing that Hjellemo had some tongue-in-cheek humour when required. He called it a parodic march, probably as a statement that he never wrote any military marches, although he was a military musician by profession most of his life.

Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring

Borg is best known for his marches for wind band and has been called ‘The March King of Norway’. He composed 60 marches for military band, 100 songs and about 170 arrangements of various kinds. Crown Prince Olav Honorary March (1891) was initially written to honor Swedish Prince Carl and renamed when Norway had a new royal family in 1905.

Under the Blue and Yellow Banner has become one of the most played Swedish marches. In 1999 it was adopted as the march of the Swedish Armed Forces. Today, it is played mainly at ceremonies and official events.

Under the Blue and Yellow Banner

Peasant Dance conceals the real meaning of the Norwegian title, which implies ‘a tune played by a fiddler sitting on a tree stub as people dance around him’. This is the last part of the Two Nordic Melodies suite.

Peasant Dance

Cow-Call is based on a simple musical motif frequently belted out in the evening to attract the attention of cows grazing in distant mountain pastures. It is part of a small suite, Two Nordic Melodies.

Cow-Call

On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring (1912) was inspired by a Norwegian folk song that Grieg had used previously. However, it is far removed from Grieg’s arrangement (which imitates bell-ringing) as well as from the theme of the traditional folk song, where there is no cuckoo indeed.

On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring

Movements four and five are Entry of Trolls into the Blue Mountain and Dance of the Little Trolls. Halvorsen specified that these movements should be played attacca.

The 4th movement illustrates the slow and heavy steps of sluggish adult trolls, whereas the 5th and very last movement is vivacious to show the quicksilver nature of mischievous young troll brats. This movement requires some virtuosity in many sections of the band.
