Videorecording of this concert

Fanfare pour précéder La Péri (1911)                      Paul Dukas (1865–1935), trans. Wil van der Beek
French composer Dukas is best known as the composer of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, but his best work may have been the ballet La Péri (The Fairy). The ballet proper is to be preceded by this magnificent fanfare.
 
Song for Band (1989)                                             Cecil Karrick (1918–2014)
Cecil Karrick, a Kentucky band director and composer and an EKU graduate, taught for 38 years, the last 25 of which were at Bowling Green High School. Song for Band is a reflective treatment of an original theme.
 
Light Cavalry Overture (1866)                          Franz von Suppé (1819–1895), arr. (1922) Henry Fillmore
Light Cavalry was an operetta set in a Hungarian village. The overture, which has outshined the operetta it introduced, It is in arch form: it begins with a bugle call, followed by a galloping allegro section, a heartrending melody with ethnic coloration, a return of the allegro, and closes with the entire band playing the opening bugle calls.
 
Yorkshire Ballad (1984)                                                James Barnes (1949)
James Barnes, professor of theory and composition at the University of Kansas, wrote this original composition in the style of a folksong, with the Yorkshire Dales of northern England in mind.
 
Portrait of a Trumpet (1965)                                        Sammy Nestico (1924)
Vincent DiMartino, trumpet
Sammy Nestico was an arranger for the Count Basie Orchestra, but he was also a trombonist and a professor at the University of Georgia. He worked with numerous famous singers, composed commercial jingles, and published over 600 works. His Portrait of a Trumpet is dedicated to the memory of jazz trumpet great Conrad Gozzo.
 
Janta a Jag (1954)                                              Richard Maltby (1914–1991)
The commercially successful big band musician Richard Maltby arranged a number of selections for wind band, including this theme and variations on a Swedish folk song Å jänta å ja, the title of which translates as “My Girl and I.”
 
Bandology (1963)                                                 Eric Osterling (1926–2005)
Eric Osterling was the high school band director in Portland, Connecticut, for 34 years, followed by six years at Florida Southern College in Lakeland, Florida. As a music educator he understood the young musician, and he wrote works that were challenging but attainable. His most popular march, Bandology, employs dance band harmonies and rhythms.
