P ROG RAM N OT E S Fanfares from Libuše (1875/1976) Bedřich Smetana (2 March 1824, Litomyšl, Czechoslovakia–12 May 1884, Prague, Czechoslovakia) was a Czech composer who pioneered the development of a musical style which became closely identified with his country’s aspirations to independent statehood. He is thus widely regarded in his homeland as the father of Czech music.

Internationally he is best known for his opera The Bartered Bride; for the symphonic cycle Má vlast (“My Homeland”), which portrays the history, legends and landscape of the composer’s native land; and for his First String Quartet, From My Life.

Smetana was naturally gifted as a pianist, and gave his first public performance at the age of six. After his conventional schooling, he studied music under Josef Proksch in Prague. His first nationalistic music was written during the 1848 Prague uprising, in which he briefly participated. After failing to establish his career in Prague, he left for Sweden, where he set up as a teacher and choirmaster in Gothenburg, and began to write largescale orchestral works.

In the early 1860s, a more liberal political climate in Bohemia encouraged Smetana to return permanently to Prague. He threw himself into the musical life of the city, primarily as a champion of the new genre of Czech opera. In 1866 his first two operas, The Brandenburgers in Bohemia and The Bartered Bride, were premiered at Prague’s new Provisional Theatre, the latter achieving great popularity. In that same year, Smetana became the theatre’s principal conductor, but the years of his conductorship were marked by controversy. Factions within the city’s musical establishment considered his identification with the progressive ideas of Franz Liszt and Richard Wagner inimical to the development of a distinctively Czech opera style. This opposition interfered with his creative work and may have hastened the health breakdown which precipitated his resignation from the theatre in 1874.

By the end of 1874, Smetana had become completely deaf but, freed from his theatre duties and the related controversies, he began a period of sustained composition that continued for almost the rest of his life. His contributions to Czech music were increasingly recognized and honored, but a mental collapse early in 1884 led to his incarceration in an asylum and his subsequent death. Smetana’s reputation as the founding father of Czech music has endured in his native country, where advocates have raised his status above that of his contemporaries and successors. However, relatively few of Smetana’s works are in the international repertory, and most foreign commentators tend to regard Antonín Dvořák as a more significant Czech composer.

On Fanfares from Libuše: Bedřich Smetana’s opera Libuše was written between the years 1869 and 1872. The Czech composer referred to it in a letter as “not a normal repertory opera. It is my wish to reserve it for special occasions of national celebrations.” The opera was not premiered until nine years after its completion, when it was performed to mark the 1881 opening of the National Theater in Prague, which was itself considered a Czech triumph – a much-desired victory as Czech nationalism strengthened within the AustroHungarian Empire. Smetana’s health had been deteriorating from syphilis in the decade prior, and he was rendered totally deaf 1874. Although he was present at the premier performance, he was unable to hear a note of his opera.This arrangement for wind ensemble was completed by Czech-American composer Václav Nelhýbel in 1974,

P ROG RAM N OT E S and was one of over 400 of his pieces that were published during his lifetime. It is an abridged version of the overture from Libuše and connects Romantic era writing to modern instrumentation and scoring.

Mr. Duarte earned an Associate of Arts degree in music from Fullerton College, a Bachelor of Music degree in composition from California State University, Northridge, and a Master of Music degree candidate in composition at Butler University. In 2020, he entered the Doctor of Musical Arts degree in composition program at Texas Tech University, studying under Jennifer Jolley. He was an instructor of record, teaching composition at Texas Tech. In 2021, he transferred to Michigan State University. His mentors have included Anthony Mazzaferro, Michael Colburn, Liviu Marinescu, Milen Kirov, Michael Schelle and James Mulhollan.

Recipient of two Global Music Awards for composer and song, for Te Tengo Dentro, Todo el Tiempo, Duarte has also earned two ASCAP Plus Awards and has had works performed throughout the United States, Japan, and the Republic of Colombia by professionals and secondary, collegiate, and community ensembles. His music has been featured in seminars and conferences hosted by Ball State University, The University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and Universidad del Cauca, and in recitals and concerts at the University of North Texas, Mills College, and Snow College, among others. His music has also been included in the Wind Repertory Project and featured in the Composers Circle and by the online radio station Kinetics Radio. The Green Band Association, an organization that sponsors Japanese bands to participate in the Tournament of Roses Parade, programmed his works 2012, 2014 and 2017. Upcoming projects include two choral works, a percussion concerto for Matthew Richards, Principal Percussionist of the Missouri Symphony Orchestra, and an album release.

Composer Website: http://frankduarte.com On Song for Mother Gaia, the composer writes: While perusing for a set of poems, I stumbled upon June Night by Sara Teasdale. Like most of Sara’s poetry, this poem has a solemnity to it. Immediately, upon reading her poetry, three words came to mind: solitude, sincerity, and love. I adapted the poem into the following text: Oh, Earth you are too dear tonight, How can I sleep, while all around Floats rainy fragrance and the far Deep voice of the ocean that talks to the ground?

Oh Earth, you gave me all I have, I love you, Earth.

P ROG RAM N OT E S This adapted text resulted in Song for Mother Gaia, which is just that -- a song for Earth, showcasing my love for our beautiful planet. I have always loved nature, and part of that love, I believe, comes from the fact that some form of it has always surrounded me. This composition explores many different colors that mimic a beautiful transient moment of daydreaming, appreciating the wonders and beauty of what I call this huge green planet, home.

- Program Note by composer (for choral edition) -Composer Biography from Windrep.org Notezart (2017) Cindy McTee (b. 1953, Tacoma, Wash.) is an American composer and educator.

Ms. McTee holds degrees from Pacific Lutheran University, the Yale School of Music, and the University of Iowa. She also completed one year of study in Poland with Krzysztof Penderecki at the Academy of Music in Kracow.

Originally hailed by critics as a composer whose music reflects a “charging, churning celebration of the musical and cultural energy of modern-day America,” Cindy McTee “brings to the world of concert music a fresh and imaginative voice.” Ms. McTee has received numerous awards for her music, most significantly a “Creative Connections Award” from Meet The Composer, two awards from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Fulbright Fellowship, and a Composers Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts. She was also winner of the 2001 Louisville Orchestra Composition Competition, and in 2002 was selected to participate with the National Symphony Orchestra in “Music Alive.” a residency program sponsored by Meet The Composer and the American Symphony Orchestra League.

McTee has been commissioned by the Houston, Amarillo, Dallas, and National Symphony Orchestras, Bands of America, the American Guild of Organists, the Barlow Endowment, the College Band Directors National Association, and Pi Kappa Lambda.

Her music has been performed by leading orchestras, bands, and chamber ensembles in Japan, South America, Europe, Australia, and the United States in such venues as Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and the Sydney Opera House. Among the many ensembles to have performed her music are: the Pacific Symphony, the North Texas and Dallas Wind Symphonies, the Buffalo Philharmonic, the Cleveland Orchestra, the National Symphony Orchestra, Tokyo’s NHK Symphony Orchestra, London’s Philharmonia Orchestra, the United States Army Field Band, and the symphony orchestras of Colorado, Columbus, Dallas, Detroit, Chicago, Houston, Indianapolis, Rochester, Saint Louis, San Antonio, Seattle, and Sydney.

In May of 2011, she retired from the University of North Texas as Regents Professor Emerita, and in November of 2011 she married conductor Leonard Slatkin. Their principal place of residence is in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan.

P ROG RAM N OT E S On Notezart: Notezart (2017) was originally commissioned by the Brass and Percussion Ensemble of the National Orchestra of Lyon. The wind symphony version is dedicated to Eugene Migliaro Corporon – friend, conductor and devoted champion of new music. I very much enjoy finding a way to make various kinds of music live together. So in this piece, you will hear 12-tone passages along with quartal, quintal and triadic harmony. To create unity, I use a steady pulse throughout and a strong reliance on the interval of a perfect 4th that opens the third movement from Mozart’s Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, my inspiration for Notezart. My “stolen” music (the work’s centerpiece) is cast in a quasi-Renaissance style – except for the duet between trumpet and trombone, more in keeping with an eighteenth-century variation.

Glory of the Yankee Navy (1909) John Philip Sousa (6 November 1854, Washington, D.C. – 6 March 1932, Reading, Pennsylvania) was America’s best-known composer and conductor during his lifetime.

Sousa was born the third of 10 children of John Antonio Sousa (born in Spain of Portuguese parents) and Maria Elisabeth Trinkhaus (born in Bavaria). John Philip’s father, Antonio, played trombone in the U.S. Marine band, so young John grew up around military band music. Sousa started his music education, playing the violin, as a pupil of John Esputa and G. F. Benkert for harmony and musical composition at the age of six.

He was found to have absolute pitch. When Sousa reached the age of 13, his father, a trombonist in the Marine Band, enlisted his son in the United States Marine Corps as an apprentice. Sousa served his apprenticeship for seven years, until 1875, and apparently learned to play all the wind instruments while also continuing with the violin.

P ROG RAM N OT E S Several years later, Sousa left his apprenticeship to join a theatrical (pit) orchestra where he learned to conduct. He returned to the U.S. Marine Band as its head in 1880 and remained as its conductor until 1892. He organized his own band the year he left the Marine Band. The Sousa Band toured 1892-1931, performing 15,623 concerts. In 1900, his band represented the United States at the Paris Exposition before touring Europe. In Paris, the Sousa Band marched through the streets including the Champs-Élysées to the Arc de Triomphe – one of only eight parades the band marched in over its forty years.

Sousa wrote 136 marches. He also wrote school songs for several American Universities, including Kansas State University, Marquette University, the University of Michigan, and the University of Minnesota. Sousa died at the age of 77 on March 6, 1932 after conducting a rehearsal of the Ringgold Band in Reading, Pennsylvania. The last piece he conducted was The Stars and Stripes Forever.

On Glory of the Yankee Navy: The musical comedy The Yankee Girl was in need of a spirited march, so Sousa was prevailed upon to provide one. The march, one of Sousa’s most interesting musically, was dedicated to the star of the show, Blanche Ring. Lyrics were provided by Kenneth S. Clark. The title underwent a process of evolution. The earliest known manuscript was labeled “Uncle Sam’s Navy.” Prior to the opening, newspapers referred to the march as The Honor of the Yankee Navy.
