Twittering Machine by Brian Balmages (FJH)

Grade 2.5 

Publisher: FJH Music Company 

Inspired by the ambiguous 1922 artwork by Swiss-German painter Paul Klee, this dark music depicts a struggle between nature and machine. A haunting melody slowly transforms as the machine around it grows (represented by a series of layered percussion sounds). A deeply rich and powerful work for young bands that invites many opportunities for cross-curricular discussion.

Balmages, Five Before Beethoven for String Orchestra Grade 1.5 - 2 (FJH)

A great compliment to the composer's popular work A Beethoven Lullaby, this original piece pays homage to Beethoven's fifth symphony, immersing students in the style of the first movement without feeling like they are playing a watered-down arrangement. Conductors will surely notice the many nods (both subtle and not so subtle) to Beethoven's masterpiece while also exploring original themes. (Grade 1.5 - 2, Dur 2:30)
