Themes in Music explores common themes in music including: birth,
love, death, and celebration using original and orchestral works.
Movement
I Birth is an original
composition that is fast driving and represents the excitement a
family feels when a new child is brought into the world.
Movement
II Love uses "Polyvestian Dances" by Borodin, to establish
love as portrayed by a solo flutist and passed to the rest of the
band. This can be a real show piece for your guard!
Movement
III Death is based on
Berlioz's "March of the Scaffold" portraying the musical
emotions felt when we lose a loved one. Powerful chords and big
scoring contrast a clarinet cadenza that makes this a memorable
movement to your show
Movement
IV Celebration
uses an upbeat treatment of Beethoven's famous "Hymn to Joy"
melody to bring this show to a joyous end!
