Symphonic Variations on an African Air is based on an African-American song, "I'm troubled in mind." In his foreword to "Twenty-four Negro Melodies", Coleridge-Taylor states, "What Brahms has done for the Hungarian folk-music, Dvorák for the Bohemian, and Grieg for the Norwegian, I have tried to do for these Negro Melodies. 
A message from Paul Noble: As the arranger, I want to share with the reader some of the techniques I have employed relating to the performance of the music. With 14 key changes, I have chosen to eliminate all key signatures in favor of an atonal approach. Players may be quite familiar with an F#, but less familiar with the key of F#! Pitch placement has also been an issue, with the decision to maintain it as in the original, seeing that a change of pitch would simply transfer issues without making the music more accessible. The decisions regarding enharmonics is a battle between musical integrity and technical facility. Choices have been carefully made between whether to use, for instance a B# or C, an E# or F, etc. Also, there is segmentation of technical runs, ossia options for more difficult ornamentations, and generous cueing of important solo lines. It has been my joy to make this important work available to Concert Bands around the world. PN

Concerto for Strings in G major, RV 151 (Vivaldi, Antonio)



Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart completed his Symphony No. 41 in C major, K. 551, on 10 August 1788. It was the last symphony that he composed, and also the longest.

The work is nicknamed the Jupiter Symphony. This name stems not from Mozart but rather was likely coined by the impresario Johann Peter Salomon in an early arrangement for piano.

The four movements are arranged in the traditional symphonic form of the Classical era:

Allegro vivace, 4/4
Andante cantabile, 3/4 in F major
Menuetto: Allegretto - Trio, 3/4
Molto allegro, 2/2

The symphony typically has a duration of about 33 minutes.

The second movement, also in sonata form, is a sarabande of the French type in F major similar to those found in the keyboard suites of Johann Sebastian Bach.

Symphony No. 41 in C-Major, K. 551: ‘Jupiter’ II. Andante cantabile

The Marriage of Figaro, is a comic opera in four acts composed by Mozart in 1786 featuring an Italian libretto written by Lorenzo Da Ponte. It premiered at the Burgtheater in Vienna on 1 May 1786. The opera's libretto is based on a stage comedy by Pierre Beaumarchais, La folle journée, ou le Mariage de Figaro.

The Marriage of Figaro is now regarded as a cornerstone of the standard operatic repertoire, and it appears among the top ten at the Operabase list of the most-performed operas worldwide.

this piece beautifully encapsulates the chaos and harmony of fluttering butterflies.

Jean Coulthard (1908-2000) was a Canadian Composer. Through her mother she received her earliest musical training and was introduced at an early age to the work of French composers like Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel, both of whom were lifelong influences.
A scholarship from the Vancouver Woman's Musical Club enabled her to pursue studies at the Royal College of Music in 1928-1929 where she was a pupil of Kathleen Long, R.O. Morris, and Ralph Vaughan Williams.
She studied in the 1930s and early 1940s with such composers as Béla Bartók, Aaron Copland, and Arnold Schoenberg.

In 1956-7, she spent a year in Paris and in Roquebrune, southern France, beginning an opera and completing several substantial chamber and vocal works. A later sabbatical in London permitted Coulthard to work in a sustained way with Gordon Jacob, the British composer and orchestrator.

She was one of a trio of women composers who dominated Western Canadian music in the twentieth century: Coulthard, Barbara Pentland, and Violet Archer. All three died within weeks of each other in 2000.

Coulthard's composition students included Canadian composers Chan Ka Nin, Michael Conway Baker, Sylvia Rickard, Ernst Schneider, Robert Knox, Jean Ethridge, Joan Hansen, David Gordon Duke, Lloyd Burritt and Frederick Schipizky.

Some of her well-known compositions include Cradle Song, Threnody, Canadian Fantasy, Ballade "A Winter's Tale" and her opera Return of the Native.
