Program for April 14, 2013 Madison Central High School Auditorium

American Overture (1953), Joseph Willcox Jenkins, Op. 13 (1928)
Jenkins’ first work for band, a showcase for the French horn section, was originally written for the U. S. Army Field Band, Col. Chester E. Whiting, commander, during a time when the composer served as a staff arranger.

Allerseelen (1885), Richard Strauss, Op. 10, No. 8 (1864–1949)
arr. (1955) Albert O. Davis
ed. Frederick Fennell
Richard Strauss was a successful composer in Germany and Austria who was strongly influenced by Brahms and Wagner. He set Allerseelen (“All Souls’ Day”) to text by Hermann von Gilm zu Rosenegg (1812–1864), a translation of which begins:
     Place on the table the fragrant mignonettes,
 
     Bring the last red asters inside, 
     
and let us speak again of love, 

     As once in May.
Albert Davis scored the song for band, crafting an introduction and a development that enhance the presentation of the work. 

Army of the Potomac (1965), Cecil Karrick (1918)
The Army of the Potomac, under the command of Generals Irvin McDowell, George B. McClellan and others, defended Washington during the American Civil War. Kentucky band director and composer Cecil Karrick named this tuneful march in honor of the historic fighting force.

Concerto in D Major (ca. 1711), Antonio Vivaldi, Op. 3, No. 9 (RV 230) (1678–1741)
arr. for harpsichord (1713) J. S. Bach (BWV 972) (1685–1750)
arr. Trent Hollinger
Joe Burgstaller, trumpet
Originally a Baroque violin concerto, Bach reworked this selection for harpsichord, and American composer Trent Hollinger has crafted a version for trumpet with wind band.

La Virgen de la Macarena, arr. Rafael Méndez (1906–1981)
ed. Joe Burgstaller
Joe Burgstaller, trumpet
La Macarena is a historic district in the Spanish city of Seville, Spain. One story is that matadors, before entering the arena, would pray to Senora Nuestra de la Esperanza de la Macarena, who was a patron saint of the town. Regardless, the selection has become a beloved showpiece for virtuosic trumpet players.

The Magic of Andrew Lloyd Webber, Andrew Lloyd Webber (1948)
arr. Warren Barker
We include this selection to celebrate the musical, Phantom of the Opera, upon its 25th anniversary on Broadway, now having attained the status of the longest running show on the Great White Way.
