<div>
<div dir="ltr">Dear Colleagues, </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">Please accept this as my personal invitation to you and your students to join us for our <b>"American Tapestries"</b> concert, on Sunday, October 13th at 2:30pm - our first concert of the 2019-2020 season, and our inaugural performance in the
magnificent Center for the Arts at El Camino High School. </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">The "American Tapestries" program features the music of all American composers, and also has selections which feature various themes of Americana:</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><b>One for All - Robert Litton</b> an amazing concert fanfare that I commissioned for my CSU, Hayward Wind Ensemble, from then-student Robert Litton. The piece won the H. Robert Reynolds Composition Prize, and Robert Litton now has an active
career as a film/TV composer and orchestrator. </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><b>Simple Gifts; Four Shaker Songe - Frank Ticheli. </b>This piece needs no introduction, as it has become a staple in the band repertoire.</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><b>Mutanza; Symphonic Variations for Band - James Curnow</b> A major work for wind band and one of two "big pieces" on our program. Composed for the University of Iowa Symphonic Band, "Mutanza" is 16 minutes of inspired symphonic writing, masterful
thematic development, and virtuosic music for winds and percussion. </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><b>American Fanfare - Rick Kirby</b> A wonderfully creative fanfare, based on "My Country 'Tis of Thee"</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><b>Fantasies on a Theme of Haydn - Norman Dello Joio </b>The second "big piece" on the program. A masterwork in the wind band repertory; an introduction, theme (taken from a Haydn piano work), and three extensive variations or "Fantasies." Composed
for Leonard Falcone and the Michigan State University band. </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><b>The Thunderer March - John Philip Sousa</b> Mrs. Sousa's favorite march!</div>
<div dir="ltr"><b>Symphony on Themes of John Philip Sousa; II. After "The Thunderer" - Ira Hearshen</b> The first movement of this epic symphony by Ira Hearshen - slowing down the trio melody from the march, and setting it in the style of the slow movement
from Mahler's Third Symphony. </div>
<div dir="ltr">Beautifully powerful...</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr"><b>Seventy-Six Trombones - Meredith Willson/Leroy Anderson/Jay Bocook</b> Jay Bocook's wind band transcription of Leroy Anderson's arrangement of this iconic piece from Meredith Willson's "Music Man." Anderson pays homage to Willson's stint as
the piccolo player in John Philip Sousa's band (before his stint in the New York Philharmonic!) - by superimposing motives and melodies from a number of marches onto Willson's famous tune. </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">The flyer for the concert is attached below. Please print it out, and post it in your band rooms. Admission is free for students up through 8th grade, and high school and college aged students are only $10 (General Admission is $15). If you and
your students have not had the opportunity to hear a concert in this magnificent new facility, this will be a special treat! </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">I hope you will pass along my invitation to your students, and join us on October 13th. </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">Sincerely, </div>
<div dir="ltr"><br>
