Bold and dynamic, this outstanding overture by Ed Huckeby features pulsating rhythms in mixed meters and broad flowing themes that are enjoyable to both the band and the listener. Includes numerous percussion parts that will keep performers interested and involved. Written for and dedicated to the International Music Camp. A superior choice for concert and contest performances and excellent teaching material for developing musicianship in mid-level bands. Very highly recommended!

Ouverture To The Opera 'Halka' - Stanis?aw Moniuszko

Ouverture To The Three Angels - Jelle Tasseyns

This overture was written in 2000 and pays homage to the composer Paul Hindemith. The composition is based on "Es sungen drei Engel. The song dates back to the 12th century and was originally a Christmas carol. Mahler used this melody in his 'Des Knaben Wunderhorn' and in the finale of his third symphony. Paul Hindemith also uses this melody as a chorale in the 'Engelkonzert' of his 'Mathis der Maler' symphony. This melody is not only used extensively in the 'Overture to The Three Angels', it also forms the main theme of the entire central piece. In this central piece, the melody can first be heard as a fugue by the woodwind instruments and then by the brass instruments andultimately ends in a grand tutti which features all the themes of the entire work. The first and the last part of the composition are not based directly on the chorale melody but constitute a contemporary commentary of the central part. These are not literal references but rather the sounds of the heralds.
