Notes ON THE PROGRAM
Armenian Dances, Part I is an extendedsymphonic rhapsody built upon fourdifferent arrangements of authenticArmenian folk songs and one originalsong from the collected works ofGomidas Vartabed (1869–1935), thefounder of Armenian classical music.
Reed opens with a flourishing renditionof Tzirani Tzar (The Apricot Tree), fol-lowed by Gakavi Yerk (Partridge’sSong), Hoy, Nazan Eem (Hoy, MyNazan; Nazan is a girl’s name), Alagyaz(the name of a mountain in Armenia),and Gna, Gna, (Go, Go).
ARMENIAN DANCES (PART I)Alfred Reed
Song Book is a set of pieces that aresonglike—that is, intimate and expres-sive, though not necessarily quiet. Thesolo flute feels like a voice to me, avoice that has a complex story to tell, inthe form of musical dreams. The title ofthe second movement, “SolviturAmbulando,” is Latin for “it is solved
by walking.” There is a centuries-oldtradition that good ideas come whilewalking. It is a practice that I have usedin my creative work for some years.Intuition and intellect are engagedtogether through the alternatingmotion of the limbs.
SONG BOOK FOR FLUTE AND WIND ENSEMBLEII. SOLVITUR AMBULANDO
David Maslanka
When Jesus Wept was inspired by aWilliam Billings hymn and was made firstinto a piece for orchestra (in 1956, with theband version transcribed by the composer
in 1958). The hymn is a simple melodyfrom the 1770 New England Psalm Singerthat is intended to be performed as around. It uses the following text:
WHEN JESUS WEPTWilliam Schuman
When Jesus wept, the falling tearIn mercy flowed beyond all bound;
When Jesus groaned, a trembling fearSeized all the guilty world around.

Old Churches uses Gregorian chant tocreate a slightly mysterious monasteryscene filled with the prayers and chant-ing of monks in an old church.Gregorian chant is ancient churchmusic and that has been in existence forover 1500 years. The chant unfoldsthrough call and response patterns. One
monk intones a musical idea, then therest of the monks respond by singingback. The musical conversation contin-ues throughout the piece, with theexception of a few brief interruptions.Perhaps they are the quiet commentschurch visitors make to one another.
OLD CHURCHESMichael Colgrass
In the summer of 1893, John PhilipSousa was engaged to perform severalconcerts daily during a ten-week periodat Brooklyn’s venerable ManhattanBeach resort. Composed later that sum-mer and dedicated to the owner andoperator of the resort, Austin Corbin,the Manhattan Beach March soon
became a perennial Sousa favorite.Numerous “secret” devices weregleaned from the extensive marks onthe player’s original parts to create thedelightful seaside effects of crashingwaves, the sun’s glint on the water andthe sound of a band that gets closer,then farther away on your seaside stroll.
MANHATTAN BEACH MARCHJohn Philip Sousa
Candide was Leonard Bernstein’s thirdBroadway musical, following On theTown and Wonderful Town. It openedin New York in 1956, but, unlike itspredecessors, was not a commercial suc-cess. Adapted by Lillian Hellman fromVoltaire’s 18th century satire on blindoptimism, the story concerns a young
man, Candide, who travels the worldwith his tutor, Dr. Pangloss, and hissweetheart Cunegonde. The sparklingoverture captures the frenetic activity ofthe operetta, with its twists and turns,along with Candide’s simple honesty,and has remained a staple of the orches-tral and wind ensemble repertoire.
OVERTURE TO CANDIDELeonard Bernstein
I wanted to write a moto perpetuo, apiece that starts running and neverstops (Equus is the Latin word forhorse) that would also be a virtuosicshow piece for winds. The final result issomething that I call Dynamic
Minimalism, which basically meansthat I love to employ repetitive patternsas long as they don’t get boring. Equusis dedicated to my friend Gary Green,the most passionate and patient con-ductor I know.

For her earliest holiday costume, mydaughter Haven wanted to be dressedas a ballerina. It was a passion that hasnot stopped to this day.
Havendance was the first of the “chil-dren’s dances.” I was teaching at thetime of its composition in Chillicothe,Missouri, and the former band director,
Claude T. Smith, (Yes THAT Claude T.Smith), and I were asked to write piecesfor an anniversary concert of a NorthCentral Missouri honor band. Havenwas eight and constantly leaping anddancing about the house, and sheseemed the perfect subject for a“dance” piece. Thus, Havendance.
HAVENDANCE David Holsinger
Many notable compositions in the formof the serenade for string orchestraflourished during the late Romanticera. Those of Tchaikovsky, Dvorák,Suk, and Elgar immediately come tomind. Kalinnikov’s single movementversion, marked Andantino, is one ofthe shorter and lighter renditions.Written in 1891 when the composer
was just 25, Serenade for Strings per-meates qualities of Russian folksongthat characterized all of his major com-positions. The themes are lyrical andimmediately likeable, and althoughpresented on the whole as a melancholywaltz, the melodic layers also unfold asense of tranquility and content.
SERENADE FOR STRINGSVasily Kalinnikov
Jubilant Overture is a piece that embod-ies what its title indicates, an expressionof joy, energy, and unbridled enthusi-asm. Beginning with a festive, syncopat-ed motif, soloists intertwine with theorchestra before transitioning to a
soothing and lyric secondary theme,reminiscent of the waltzes found in theAmerican fiddling tradition. The pacequickens once more, restoring the brightand exciting opening statement, andending the piece as robustly as it began.

Jubel Overture was composed in 1818to commemorate the fiftieth royaljubilee of King Frederick Augustus I ofSaxony. After the premiere Weberwrote in his diary: “Festival day. Atnight grand court concert in the OperaHouse. My Jubilee Overture went fine-ly.” After a grand introduction, per-haps symbolizing honor and respect for
the king, a driving presto of joyous cel-ebration arrives, ending with a brilliantfortissimo. As a final monarchial trib-ute, the full orchestra erupts with asolemn and grand rendition of “HeilDir Im Siegerkranz” (derived from theBritish anthem “God Save the King”),which served at the time as the royalanthem of Prussia.
JUBEL OVERTURE Carl Maria von Weber
Serenade for Friends was written forthe Mira Costa HS Symphony by mul-tiple Emmy Award and GrammyAward winning composer LeeHoldridge. The inspiration forSerenade for Friends is found in its ded-ication “to so many friends lost overrecent years.” The primary themeintroduced by the obbligato piano islyrical and reverent. Its unusual leapsof Perfect 11ths and Major 14ths, how-ever, evince unpredictability and vul-nerability, disguising the theme’s initialcalm. A livelier middle section contains
cascades of quick, descending 16th
notes and punctuated syncopations,portraying snapshots of happier times.As the athletic passages wind down, theinitial sense of loss expressed in the pri-mary theme returns, but transformed toa more reflective celebration of life andfond memories. Although the griefremains, there is an enlightened per-spective that grows with time and even-tual acceptance.
The world premiere of Serenade ForFriends is being performed tonight in

The Danza Final from Ginastera’s bal-let suite “Estancia” is based on theMalambo, a quick and vigorousArgentinean folk dance in which mencompete to demonstrate their agilityand machismo. The dance itself is aseries of Justas, or competitive “any-thing you can do, I can do better”moments. The story of the ballet is
built around a love triangle where acity boy becomes entranced with abeautiful ranch girl who considers hima weakling in comparison to the gau-chos (horsemen) who work on theranch. Determined to win the girl’sheart, the city boy competes with thegauchos to convince her that he is wor-thy of her love.

Made popular by Carmen Miranda inthe 1947 film “Copacabana,” Tico TicoNo Fubá is an example of a choro, aninstrumental urban popular music genreoriginating from 19th century Rio deJaneiro. The choro is characterized byvirtuosity, syncopation, and a brisktempo. In Brazil, tico-tico is the localname for the Rufous-collared Sparrow
and fubá is a type of maize flour. Hence,the song title translates to “sparrow inthe cornmeal.” Abreu’s song depicts afarmer lamenting over the little birddining on the cornmeal piled in hisgranary. The farmer’s complaints, how-ever, become almost comical as the tico-tico feasts leisurely and repetitively,much to the complainant’s chagrin.
TICO TICO NO FUBÁ Zequinha de Abreuarr. Cliff Colnot
Many would say there is no better com-position that represents the diversemelting pot that is New York City thanGershwin’s iconic Rhapsody In Blue.Daringly incorporating several musicalinfluences, including Scott Joplin’s rag-time, improvisational Harlem jazz,Yiddish theater folk music, and theexperimental harmonies of post-Romantic composers such as Ravel,Schoenberg and Stravinsky, the 1924
premiere performance featuredGershwin himself on solo piano, andsparked instant success that went on towin an enduring worldwide reputation.Tonight’s offering by the Mira CostaHS Symphony features piano soloistBrian Zukotynski. Mr. Zukotynski is arecent graduate of Mira Costa HS, andcurrently studies both biochemistry andpiano at the University of SouthernCalifornia.
RHAPSODY IN BLUEGeorge Gershwin
tribute to the memory of conductorPeter Park’s late father-in-law, Dr. JamesCavallaro. According to Park, Dr.Cavallaro was “a beloved father figure,hero, and friend who lived each day ofhis life with genuine gratitude, and in
turn gave all who knew him the gift ofcherished memories to last a lifetime.”My interpretation of Lee Holdridge’swonderful new composition was verymuch guided by Dr. Cavallaro’s inspir-ing example and spirit.
