Be Still, My Soul
Robert W. Smith's setting of the African-American spiritual "Be Still, My Soul" is an excellent opportunity to teach lyrical performance techniques and expression to your beginning band. Using only the first six notes introduced in most band methods, this beautiful arrangement is musically rewarding and educationally sound. The spiritual's melody is based on "Finlandia" by Sibelius allowing multiple cross-cultural teaching opportunities. Highly recommended!

A Finnish Rhapsody - Clare Grundman
The opening measured of Clare Grundman's A Finnish Rhapsody are base on Oi kallis Suomenmaa (O Blessed Fatherland), an old South Bothnian melody beloved of the whole Finnish nation. The words of this song epitomize each Finn'snoblest duty, the readiness to sacrifice all in defense of his country's liberty. Next is an episode based on Kesilta (Summer Evening), one of the loveliest of Finnish folk songs, being as delightfully tranquil as the Finnishcountryside. Following this is a section based on the lively folk tune, Talon Tytt (The Country Lass), a mirthful love song about a peasant maid and her swain. This leads into the majestic Finlandia Hymn, created by Jan Sibelius.The work closes with the return of Oh, Blessed Fatherland, with all its strength and grandeur. (5:30)
