BLACK FIRE (after Paradise Lost) (Violin Solo with Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Clarke, Nigel

This is not a straight forward concerto, but rather a symphonic drama for violin and ensemble. It uses the soloist as both protagonist and ensemble player, much as Berlioz treated the viola in his symphony 'Harold in Italy'. Black Fire is written in one movement though it has three clear sections (slow, fast and slow). The music reflects the various shades of darkness and suffering that dominate the atmosphere of the early part of the poem. The violinist takes the role of Satan, reflecting his moods, from righteous indignation to sorrowful remorse. A motif from Wagner's opera 'Gotterdaemmerung' (Twighlight of the Gods) is used throughout the work to represent Satan's brooding hatred. At the end of the work you will find Satan in the form of the solo violin heroically travelling towards Paradise to corrupt 'Mankind'. Duration: 26:00

Black Gold (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Deleruyelle, Thierry

Black Gold was commissioned by Musikverein 1891 "Harmonie" Saarwellingen e.V. (Germany) to mark its 130th anniversary. This composition pictures the history of the mining industry in the town of Saarwellingen and its surrounding region, where the life of the miners as well as their families revolved around coal, or black gold, for centuries on end. The piece is based on motifs from the famous song "Glck auf, Glck auf, der Steiger kommt..." (Good luck, good luck, the mining foreman comes), a veritable anthem for miners the world over.Duration: 11.00

Black Granite is dedicated to the men and women who gave their lives in Vietnam, and whose names are forever engraved on the solemn black granite stone wall at the Vietnam Memorial in Washington DC.
