    Keep the Faith - Score and Parts - Duncan Stubbs

    Program NotesKeep the Faith originally started as a personal tribute to my late mother. Not long after writing the opening ideas I was approached to write music to accompany a rendition of the poem "We Will Keep the Faith" by Moina Michael for performance as part of the 100th Anniversary of the start og World War I. The appropriateness of the music already written and the sentiment behind both concepts was a coincidence too good to overlook. Rarely sentimental and always practical I feel sure my mum would be delighted that the music she originally inspired was being used to portray a much wider universal message of remembrance.Whether performed with or without the poem a fully sustained sound should always be aimed for. The 'bugle' call at bar 20 and again at bar 76 should reflect a distant call across the trenches, the cornet remaining prominent over the upper woodwind. The tempo indication is a guide only and allowance must be made for the acoustic in which the piece is performed. The music must always flow, but appropriate rubato should be freely used together with appropriate tenuto in the middle of phrases.- Duncan Stubbs

    Angels of Christmas

    Angels of Christmas is a beautiful and original addition to the holiday repertoire. This lyrical ballad skillfully weaves together fragments from three well-known Christmas carols--Angels We Have Heard on High, Hark, the Herald Angels Sing, and O Little Town of Bethlehem--that reference the appearance of angels. The carols' melodies are interwoven with bold harmonies and shifting instrumental colors, creating a rich tapestry of sound. The piece builds to a jubilant climax before transitioning into a poignant ending, offering a sensitive and fresh interpretation of these timeless carols.

    Hymn of Cittaslow (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - De Haan, Jacob

    Cittaslow is an international network of more than 220 towns in 30 countries. Its members are towns where people are still finding themselves reminiscing over the old times; towns that are rich in theatres, squares, cafes, restaurants and spiritual places; towns with untouched landscapes and charming craftsman where people are still able to recognise the slow course of the seasons, and respect their authentic products, true taste as well as their health. The Hymn of Cittaslow, which was commissioned by the organisation itself, is entirely inspired by their commitment to the preservation of the member towns. The tempo is naturally slow, and the themes somehow sound familiar. On the one hand, the music emanates peace and quiet, but it also sounds grand in its lyricism, thereby reflecting the beauty of the Cittaslow towns.Duration: 4.00
