Wind Symphony • november 9, 2016

Adolphus Hailstork (b.1941)Celebration! (1976)Duration: 4 minutes

Educated at Howard University, the Manhattan School of Music, and Michigan State University, Adolphus Hailstork is a versatile composer whose career has spanned decades. His compositions include works for orchestra, wind band, opera, and most of all choir. As a young boy, Hailstork was strongly influenced by choral music:

When I began singing as a boy soprano in the (Episcopal) Cathedral of All Saints, in Albany, New York, I fell in love with choral music. Participation in the great Anglican choral tradition with its treasury of splendid music ranging from Gregorian chant to Ralph Vaughn Williams and beyond, was one of the formative influences in my musical life.

Another powerful experience was four years singing in the remarkable Howard University choir. From 1959 to 1963 the choir appeared frequently with the National Symphony Orchestra, performing major choral works such as the Verdi Requiem, the Beethoven Ninth Symphony, and Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana.

Celebration! was written by commission in preparation for a bicentennial celebration in 1976. The piece was well received and shortly after recorded by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. Hailstork then chose to score it for band as well. The work is a symphonic fanfare, yet with an element of surprise as unexpected rhythms and irregular meters abound to help capture the nature of the American spirit.

Morten Lauridsen (b. 1943); trans. H. Robert ReynoldsO Magnum Mysterium (1994; trans. 2004)Duration: 6 minutes

A former student of Ingolf Dahl, Morten Lauridsen studied composition at the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music and later joined the faculty in 1967. He has been a professor of composition at USC for over forty years. Mostly known for his choral works, Lauridsen has been composer-in-residence of the Los Angeles Master Chorale (1994–2001) and has received many honors, including the National Medal of Arts in 2007 and numerous Grammy nominations.

O Magnum Mysterium was written for choir in 1994 and premiered by the Los Angeles Master Chorale. At Lauridsen’s request, H. Robert Reynolds completed the wind transcription in 2004. The wind setting captures the warmth and purity of the human voice, while taking advantage of additional color combinations. The piece unfolds in a rich major tonality, with strategically placed ninths that

heighten its beauty and wonder more so than create dissonance. Lauridsen wrote of his composition:

For centuries, composers have been inspired by the beautiful O Magnum Mysterium text with its depiction of the birth of the newborn King amongst the lowly animals and shepherds. This affirmation of God’s grace to the meek and the adoration of the Blessed Virgin are celebrated in my setting through a quiet song of profound inner joy.

O great mystery and wonderful sacrament,that animals should see the new-born Lordlying in a manger!

O blessed is the Virgin, whose wombwas worthy to bear Christ the Lord.Hail Mary, full of grace: the Lord is with you.Blessed is the Virgin whose womb was worthy to bear Christ the Lord.Alleluia!

Marco Pütz (b. 1958)Derivations (2005)Duration: 17 minutes

Marco Pütz was born in Luxembourg in 1958 and studied music in Luxembourg and Belgium. He now serves on the faculty at the Conservatory of Luxembourg. Pütz gained international recognition in 1995 when he won 1st prize at the International Clarinet Association Composition Contest. Recognition for many other wind pieces followed and he has now contributed many works to the wind repertoire that are considered masterworks, especially among the competitive wind bands of Europe.

Originally scored for fanfare band (an ensemble most often found in the Netherlands consisting of brass and saxophones), Derivations was premiered in Singapore at the 2005 World Association for Symphonic Bands and Ensembles conference. It is a piece of great showmanship and quickly became a contest piece in Europe. Pütz rescored the piece for wind band the following year. He stated, “The composition is built on a short motive, which undergoes a series of mutations.” The motive, first introduced in the trumpet, unfolds in many heroic and virtuosic ways, challenging the ensemble in technique, meter, and tempo, while remaining seemingly effortless to the listener. Combinations of timbre remain fresh as the recognizable motive

recurs, yet is morphed through the transformation of texture. When the full ensemble is employed, heroic joy abounds and truly characterizes the virtuosic showmanship of the work.

Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990); trans. Clare GrundmanCandide Suite (1956; trans. 1993)Duration: 12 minutes

One of the most successful American musicians is composer and conductor Leonard Bernstein. At just 25 years old, he made the most spectacular conducting debut in American history, filling in to conduct the New York Philharmonic at the last minute in place of Bruno Walter. The concert was broadcast nationwide on the radio, making Bernstein an overnight sensation. A brilliant career as composer, conductor, and educator followed.

Although Bernstein composed many serious works, he also contributed several masterworks to musical theater. Candide was billed as a “comic operetta” and opened on Broadway in 1956 when shows such as South Pacific, The King and I, and My Fair Lady were enjoying great success. Based on a novel by Voltaire, the plot of Candide is somewhat darker than the other shows of its day. This fact and the operatic nature of the score are perhaps contributing reasons for the production’s initial limited success. A far greater appreciation for Candide came in the years that followed and the overture has become celebrated as an audience favorite.

Candide Suite is built upon adaptations of musical moments that advance the drama of the plot. Voltaire’s satirical story follows the life of a young man, Candide, who has been taught by his professor, Doctor Pangloss, that life should be led with mindless optimism. Pangloss explains that the ills of the world are all for the best in The Best of All Possible Worlds. However, throughout the operetta the optimism of Candide and his love, Cunegonde, is repeatedly challenged. Candide is banished from his homeland of Westphalia in what turns out to be a fortunate twist. Shortly after his departure, the Bulgarian army invades the town and massacres most of its residents (Westphalia Chorale and Battle Scene). Pangloss and Cunegonde both survive, but Candide believes Cunegonde to be dead.

Candide and Pangloss meet again in Lisbon and find themselves prosecuted as heretics by the Spanish Inquisition. In Auto-da-fe (What a Day) the joyous music depicts a celebratory crowd awaiting the deliverance of Candide and Pangloss, believing their punishment will prevent a pending earthquake. The music is satirical - Pangloss is hung and Candide is whipped, yet the earthquake happens anyway and Candide escapes. Meanwhile Cunegonde, having survived the invasion of Westphalia but raped instead, has been sold

into prostitution and becomes a reigning madam. In Glitter and Be Gay she sings of how she maintains a brilliant, carefree exterior while she is internally tortured by shame and self-doubt.

Candide and Cunegonde are reunited after the earthquake and endure additional suffering before the conclusion of Voltaire’s novel. In the end the optimism they were taught has transformed into practical necessity. Make Our Garden Grow is the finale of the operetta in which Candide’s newly gained practical awareness leads to his choosing a simple life, cultivating the earth and gardening. Inspired, Cunegonde and the others also commit to simplicity and farming, joining in a final hymn of hope.
