I will not be using this account for much longer so watch me there if you haven't already.
Anyway, this is our performance of Clifton Williams' Caccia and Chorale, and I'm on Timpani! This is a really good timpani part too!
Program Notes:
This piece is described by its composer, Clifton Williams, as "philosophical" and "pictorial". The Italian word "Caccia" means hunt or chase. The Caccia is intended to reflect the preoccupation that people have with the world and the constant pursuit of materialistic goals. Near its frenzied end, the caccia is interrupted by a morse code-like figure in the high woodwinds, which is based on the symbols for D - E - G. These are the intials of Donald E. Greene, conductor of the Wisconsin State University Wind Ensemble, which commissioned Clifton Williams to write the piece. This morse code pattern persists over sustained block chords, suggesting the futility of the chase. In contrast to the Caccia, the Chorale section is described by the composer as an "urgent plea for greater humanity and a return to religious or ethical concepts." The piece ends with a somewhat unresolved, restless feeling. Here is Clifton Williams " Caccia and Chorale".
