Festive 1xbet online sports betting (1954)………………….…………...………………..Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975)
The gestation of Shostakovich’s Festive Overture has been subject to several different theories. One author claims that it was originally written in 1947, but was suppressed by Shostakovich along with many of his compositions created during 1xbet online sports betting repressive period of Soviet history. Others believe that the celebratory quality of the overture displays Shostakovich’s relief at the death of Josef Stalin (in 1953), whose regime had twice censored the composer and his music. Most probably, the work was commissioned for a gathering at the Bolshoi Theater in November of 1954, celebrating the 37th anniversary of the October Revolution. The conductor, Vasili Nebolsin, realized that he had no appropriate piece to open the high-profile concert. He approached Shostakovich, who was at the time a musical consultant at the Bolshoi. The composer set to work, and the overture was completed in three days, the individual pages of the score being taken by courier before the ink had dried to copyists waiting at the theater to create the orchestra parts. Although written in haste, the overture has proved to be one of Shostakovich’s most frequently performed works.

Elsa’s Procession to the Cathedral (1850)………………….…………......Richard Wagner (1813-1883)
Transcriber Lucien Cailliet was a clarinetist in the Philadelphia Orchestra for many years and also served as associate conductor of The Allentown 1xbet online sports betting in Pennsylvania. This ensemble, with whom Cailliet frequently tested his transcriptions, is the oldest civilian concert 1xbet online sports betting in the nation and has a proud history of talented musicians gracing its roster. His imaginative transcription of this bridal procession from Lohengrin, which dates from 1938, seamlessly combines the chorus and the orchestra into a setting that has proved to be one of Cailliet’s most successful and popular adaptations for 1xbet online sports betting .

Toccata Marziale (1924)………………….…………...…………Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958)
Toccata Marziale, written in 1924, was Vaughan Williams’s second work for military 1xbet online sports betting and is one of the most significant contributions to the wind 1xbet online sports betting literature. The word “toccata” comes from the Italian toccare, meaning “to touch,” hence its association with the early Baroque virtuoso keyboard pieces written by Frescobaldi and others. Toccata Marziale is a contrapuntal masterpiece for wind ensemble, in which textures are juxtaposed in massed effects with large sections of winds and brasses. A rhythmic vigor, as suggested by the title, permeates the piece, and Vaughan Williams’s brilliant scoring reveals the fundamental properties of the 1xbet online sports betting ’s sonority and its instrumental virtuosity and color.

Hymn to a 1xbet online sports betting Hour (2010)………………….…………...………………….….John Mackey (b. 1973)
The blue hour is an oft-poeticized moment of the day - a lingering twilight that halos the sky after sundown but before complete darkness sets in. It is a time of day known for its romantic, spiritual, and ethereal connotations, and 1xbet online sports betting magical moment has frequently inspired artists to attempt to capture its remarkable essence. 1xbet online sports betting is the same essence that inhabits the sonic world of John Mackey’s Hymn to a Blue Hour.
Programmatic content aside, the title itself contains two strongly suggestive implications - first, the notion of hymnody, which implies a transcendent and perhaps even sacred tone; the second, the color blue, which has an inexorable tie to American 1xbet online sports betting . Certainly Hymn to a Blue Hour is not directly influenced by the blues, per se, but there is frequently throughout the piece a sense of nostalgic remorse and longing - an overwhelming sadness that is the same as the typically morose jazz form. Blue also has a strong affiliation with nobility, authority, and calmness.
1xbet online sports betting piece is composed largely from three recurring motives - first, a cascade of falling thirds; second, a stepwise descent that provides a musical sigh; and third, the descent’s reverse: an ascent that imbues hopeful optimism. From the basic framework of these motives stated at the outset of the work, a beautiful duet emerges between horn and euphonium - creating a texture spun together into a pillowy blanket of sound, reminiscent of similar constructions elicited by great American melodists of the 20th century, such as Samuel Barber. 1xbet online sports betting melody superimposes a sensation of joy over the otherwise “blue” emotive context - a melodic line that over a long period of time spins the work to a point of catharsis. In their climactic moment, the colors are at their brightest, enveloping their surroundings with an engelic glow. Alas, as is the case with the magical blue hour, the moment cannot last for long, and just as steadily as they arrived, the colors dissipate into the encroaching darkness, eventually succumbing at the work’s conclusion with a sense of peaceful repose.

Clear Track Polka (1980)………………….…………...…………………...Eduard Strauss (1835-1916)
The Strauss dynasty (there is really no other word for it) has now lasted over 150 years, in Vienna and throughout the world, bringing forth 1xbet online sports betting illustrious and continuing family, a long line of composers, conductors and performers whose efforts have delighted and entranced at least six generations of musicians, music lovers, dancers, and audiences on every continent in the civilized world.
Like his brothers, Eduard became a successful composer and conductor, almost in defiance of his father's wishes, who did not want any of his three sons to pursue such a calling. Whereas his brothers Johann and Joseph had to deal with 1xbet online sports betting situation in a sometimes painful way, Eduard (only ten when his father died) had a much easier time following his inclination toward music. As a result, he was able to enjoy his successes with a much clearer conscience. Eduard traveled and toured extensively throughout Europe as a conductor of his own orchestra and others. His compositions, imbued with the same Viennese spirit and vitality became well known and are still performed to 1xbet online sports betting day.
Clear Track Polka (Bahn Frei) is another of those delightful "Schnell Polkas" that seemed to be a Strauss invention. It depicts a railroad train being given the "clear track ahead" signal, and after starting up and reaching cruising speed, takes 1xbet online sports betting riders merrily on their happy, jingling way, with Straussian melodies as 1xbet online sports betting fuel.
