Suite Ancienne - Johan Halvorsen
In 1911 Johan Halvorsen composed incidental music for a production of Ludvig Holbergs play "The Lying-in Room" and later arranged the music into his "Suite Ancienne Op. 31." The suite in five movements contains some of Halvorsens most descriptive musical output. In harmony and instrumentation, he bursts the bounds of his baroque canvas, imbuing his music with the unmistakable stamp of Neoclassicism. The five movements consists of: 1. Intrada, 2. Air con variations, 3. Gigue, 4. Sarabande, and 5. Bouree. The arranger, Colonel John Bourgeois, has also arranged Halvorsens In Memoriam, Op.30 and the four-movement "Little Masquerade Suite." He notes that the "Suite Ancienne" may be played as a complete entity or each of the movements may be performed individually.

Patapan
The origin of Pat a Pan dates back to 1720s France. The lyrics were originally Burgundian and reflected a shepherds account of the nativity. The simple instruments available to tenders of the flock such as flutes and drums are referenced and imitated throughout the carol. This thematic material lends itself perfectly to percussion instruments and even when sung, the rhythm and the accents drive the melody from beginning to end. This arrangement attempts to capture the spirit of classic fantasy pieces, taking the listener through a variety of moods without the piece ever losing energy. The scoring features as few as 5 or as many as 9 percussionists, and only standard instruments are required. It is dedicated to all lovers of the holiday season.

Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night - Elliot Del Borgo
The Dylan Thomas poem Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night was the motivation for this musical composition. While not a programmatic depiction of the poem, the work attempts to recreate the essence of the poem in sound. Theopening motive, representative of the life force, permeates much of the work. The use of sound layers - in the form of polytonal hymns - calls to mind the struggles and persistence of the human spirit and its refusal to go gentle.A substantial and dramatic work for mature ensembles. Dur: 11:15 (Grade 5)
