A Jubilant Tribute - Barry E. Kopetz

Commissioned by the Orrville Performing Arts Council, Orrville, Ohio, this work was composed as a 'celebration of life---an exuberant reflection of the joy of one's existence.' True to its theme, this positive, upbeat selection is bound to be one of your band's favorites! Each section of the band has an interesting part to play and the catchy syncopated rhythm used throughout really keeps it 'rolling along.' A sensitive middle section provides an interesting contrast to the first theme. (Grade 3)

A Kind And Gentle Soul - James Swearingen

This prolific composer has penned many beautiful pieces. On this occasion, he has created yet another powerful and expressive composition that is highly reflective in nature. Composed in honor of a young boy who passed away far too soon, this emotional work is scored to evoke the kind traits that he displayed to the many people whose lives he touched. Truly inspiring!

A Klezmer Karnival - Philip Sparke

Klezmer music originated in the 'shtetl' (villages) and the ghettos of Eastern Europe, where itinerant Jewish troubadours, known as 'klezmorim', had performed at celebrations, particularly weddings, since the early Middle Ages. Since the 16th century, lyrics had been added to klezmer music, due to the 'badkhn' (the master of ceremony at weddings), to the 'Purimshpil' (the play of Esther at Purim) and to traditions of the Yiddish theatre, but the term gradually became synonymous with instrumental music, particularly featuring the Violin and Clarinet. In recent years it has again become very popular and in A Klezmer Karnival Philip Sparke has used threecontrasting traditional tunes to form a suite that will bring a true karnival atmosphere to any concert.
