| 4542 | 41064469-A0FA-432D-83D9-B273C9C317CB | W730891 | Carmen Fantasy, Op. 25 (Bizet) | Spanish violin virtuoso and composer Pablo de Sarasate (1844-1908) was a child prodigy raised in a musical family. Following an education at the Paris Conservatoire, which he entered at the age of twelve, he began life as a touring soloist while still a teenager. Taking popular operas and creating potpourris from their tunes was standard for a virtuoso such as Sarasate. Despite the failure of Georges Bizet’s (1838-1875) opera Carmen at its 1875 premiere, it began its conquest of the opera world soon after Bizet’s death. By the 1880s, the opera was extremely famous and successful, prompting Sarasate to add it to the list of other famous operas that he chose to craft into concert fantasies. He completed the orchestra version in 1881, premiering it in Madrid with the Sociedad de Concertos de Madrid, Mariano Vásquez conducting, on April 17 of that year. He produced a version with piano accompaniment a year later in 1882. Effectively in five movements (a prelude plus four movements) without pause, the work includes the following tunes from the opera: the Aragonaise (Entr’acte from Act Four), Habanera (Act One), an interlude (based on Carmen’s mocking treatment of Zuniga in Act One), the Séguidilla (aria from Act One), and the Bohemian/Gypsy Dance (Act Two). Upholding the dignity of the original opera from which it is derived, Carmen Fantasy (officially titled Concert Fantasy on themes from Bizet’s Carmen, Op. 25) remains one of Sarasate’s most popular operatic fantasies. | Violin & Keyboard | |
| 4543 | 410716BD-E10D-44C4-9B5A-60B28311A03C | S937CB | Jug Blues and Fat Pickin' | Originally commissioned for the celebration of Tennessee's "Homecoming '86," Jug Blues & Fat Pickin’ is without peer in the wind band repertoire. Inspired by recording of the Memphis Jug Band, the most recorded and perhaps most popular of the jug bands to spring up on Memphis' Beale Street in the late 1920's, and bluegrass banjo pickin', Freund's composition is a unique musical offering that melds "blues elements" with minimalist technique. | 3+2 Piccolos.2.3+Eb Clar+2 Bass Clarinet+ContraBCl.2.AATB Saxes: 4.3.3.2 Euph.1: Timp.Perc(3) | |

| 4546 | 4115DAB4-345C-448A-A74D-AF7BA5E924FF | S963CB | Victory (Nike) | Victory (Nike) is comprised of three sections: Allegro-Largo-Allegro. The melodic elements within the movements share the same intervallic shapes, as they are varied in different tempi, rhythmic, harmonic and architectural developments, while remaining related and united throughout the piece. The work ends with a wild, pulsating passage carrying the music to its screaming climax. Nike, the Greek word for “victory,” is most duly noted in ancient history. After the badly outnumbered Greeks somehow managed to drive back the invading Persians from the coastal plain of Marathon, a messenger was dispatched to Athens to deliver the news of the victory. After running about 26 miles to the Acropolis, he burst into the chambers proclaiming “Nike! Nike! Nenikekiam” (“Victory! Victory! Rejoice, we conquer!”). Then he promptly collapsed from exhaustion and died. Marathons to date use this 26 mile run as its origin. Review: …“Victory is large in scope and introduces different harmonic and melodic perspectives to the concert band world…musically on par with symphonies by some of the master composers.” J. W. Pepper | Concert Band | |

| 4553 | 413C2983-7E4B-42A4-8962-21BCAE59E213 | S1000WE | MeTro! for Wind Ensemble | When first approached to write a work for the Metropolitan Wind Symphony (Boston), American composer Greg Sanders tried to find out what unique qualities and characteristics were present in the makeup of the MWS organization. In his search he found a group of dedicated and sincere musical talents. A promotional video about the MWS musical activities was sent to him in the early stages of the composition process. The video showed an energetic and eclectic group made up of performers of differing professions and backgrounds that travel from all points once a week to do one thing only: make music. It is to this group of dedicated musicians and their conductor David Martins that MeTro! is dedicated. The Boston Public Transportation system or “T”, as it is known, plays an integral part in most Bostonians lives. MeTro! captures musically the energy and often sheer frenzy of living and working in a major metropolitan area. | 2(+Picc).2.3(+BCl+CBCl).2: Asax(2).TSax.BSax: 4.3.3(BTbn+Euph).1: Timp.Perc(5) | |
