The Caledonian Forest/Kimberly Archer 【吹奏楽】カレドニア森林

吹奏楽 吹奏楽のための三部作「スコシア」より第1楽章「カレドニア森林」 キムバリー・アーチャー作曲 Scotia: Trilogy for Band (Grade 6, 28:00) Scotia: Trilogy for Band is dedicated to Scotland and its people. It is a tribute to their historic struggles and triumphs, as well as to their enduring humor, courage, and national pride. I. The Caledonian Forest (this movement commissioned by Calvin Hofer and the Colorado Mesa University Wind Symphony with the generous support of Karen Combs) After the last ice age, vast pine woodlands covered central and northern Scotland. By the time of the Roman invasion in 43 AD, these forests were filled with rivers and waterfalls, leafy canopies, the now endangered Scots pine, and a multitude of indigenous wildlife. Also flourishing there were the peaceful Caledonian people, who first defined Scotland as their Kingdom of Alba. Dubbed “Picts” by the Romans for their extensive tattooing, the Caledonians were the only people in history able to resist Roman invasion. In fact, they forced the Romans to retreat and built Hadrian’s Wall across the whole country to protect Britannia from the “barbarians” in the north. The music depicts the misty pre-dawn of the pinelands just before the sun bursts over the mountains. The forest awakes and frolics, eventually drowsing in the afternoon sun. From far away comes the sound of a marching legion, followed by a battle between the Romans and Caledonians. The forest is left devastated and smoldering. http://kimberlyarcher.squarespace.com...
