Turandot - (Movement 1 From The Suite To Gozzi's Fairy Tale Drama)
Carlo Gozzi's Turandot, in one form or another, occupied Busoni at various times throughout the years of 1904-1917. He was very fond of fantastical and magical tales; his immediately preceding work was his massive piano concerto (Op. 39 BV247), which included music from an unfinished adaptatioon of Adam Oehlenschläger's Aladdin. Busoni began sketching music for Gozzi's fable in 1904; his concert suite was first performed in 1905 and published in 1906. A production of the play with Busoni's music was mounted by Max Reinhardt in Berlin in 1911, then in London in 1913. This transcription of the first movement of the suite was created for George A. Treviño and his superb Lopez High School Band of Brownsville, Texas. The piece was premiered in February 2017 at the Texas Music Educators Association convention on the occasion of the Lopez band's 6A Honor Band performance.

Symphony No. 5 In D Minor, Op. 47 - Transcribed By R. Mark Rogers For Symphonic Wind Band
Mark Rogers began his band transcription of the Shostakovich Fifth Symphony at the request of the U.S. Army Field Band and Conductor Finley Hamilton, arranging the work's Finale for the ensemble, which it subsequently performed and recorded. Movements 2 and 3 would follow later, performed by the Lone Star Wind Orchestra. This arrangement of one of the 20th Century's greatest symphonies was completed at last in 2018 with the addition of the opening movement. This Southern Music publication represents the first complete band transcription of Shostakovich's monumental work, welcoming his orchestral masterpiece into the serious repertoire for symphonic wind band. Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony was composed in 1937 in response to a savage attack on his music that was directed from the topmost levels of the Soviet government. We now know this period in Russian history as the Great Terror, during which time dissidents were routinely abducted from the streets, then either summarily executed or forced to endure show trials of monstrous cruelty. Shostakovich had every reason to fear for his life, but he nevertheless composed a work that seemed from the surface to represent a return to the conservative traditions of the past (with many similarities to the symphonies of Beethoven, in particular Beethoven's 9th, also in D minor). Under the surface, Shostakovich composed a work that teems with defiance and hidden meanings that are only narrowly understood today. All in all, this symphony represents his supreme achievement and is regarded as his greatest masterpiece.

Out To Sea And The Shark Cage Fugue (From Jaws) - Band Arrangement
Referring to the 1975 blockbuster Jaws, director Steven Spielberg states that John Williams' music was clearly responsible for half the success of the movie. This suite features two of the signature musical sequences. In Out to Sea, the trio of shark hunters led by police chief Martin Brody (played by Roy Scheider) heads into open water to find the menacing beast. This is followed by the Shark Cage Fugue, a classically inspired and sophisticated accompaniment to a tense underwater scene in which Hooper (portrayed by Richard Dreyfuss) comes face-to-face with the great white in an all-too-fragile suspended cage. Performance time - ca. 3:40

Pastoral Symphony (First Movement) - Full Orchestra Arrangement

Carefully arranged with the young orchestra in mind, this version retains all of the charm and color of Beethoven's original. Students will develop their lyrical playing skills while learning to "listen for the tune" as it moves from section to section. A wonderful way to develop proper balance in a symphonic setting, and a great introduction to music that invokes moods and pictures.
