Book excerpt: The Fortieth Anniversary of the Ensemble was celebrated in February 1992 at the Eastman School of Music, with a series of concerts, conducting workshops, and scholarly papers, presented under the aegis of the American Sonneck Society. These papers are the foundation of this book and will be viewed as primary research into the areas of historical development of the wind band, repertoire analysis, and performance practices; in addition, international reports on wind band history and development in England, Europe and Japan are presented. Of immediate interest to conductors, composers, musicologists, and performers is the essay on the Wind Ensemble Concept with its underlying principles that have created this revolution in concert band activities over the past four decades. This history, as shown through the activities of the Eastman Wind Ensemble, is presented by Donald Hunsberger, the Ensemble's conductor since 1965. Complete repertoires (in program format) of the Eastman School Symphony Band (1935-1952) and the Eastman Wind Ensemble (1952-1992), catalogues of their performances by composer and title, and a full discography of the EWE are provided.

Download or read book A Supplementary Catalog of Wind Band and Wind Ensemble Repertoire written by David Whitwell and published by . This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Supplementary Catalog of Wind Band and Wind Ensemble Repertoire is the tenth volume in Dr. David Whitwell's ground breaking thirteen-volume History and Literature of the Wind Band and Wind Ensemble series. This volume represents Whitwell's continuing research in the field of wind band repertoire with a focus on libraries in England and Italy. Because of the earlier political connection between Northern Italy and Austria, the holdings of the civic libraries in Italy offer important contributions to our understanding of the Harmoniemusik Period of Central Europe. With respect to large band repertoire, Italy was far ahead of the rest of Europe in the creation of an important body of aesthetic music. Whitwell's meticulous scholarship reveals the continuous history of the wind ensemble, from its earliest roots to the nineteenth century ? an unbroken tradition of wind music that music scholars have never been fully able to appreciate until now.
