Symphony No. 5
For Symphonic Wind Ensemble
David Maslanka

This four movement piece was composed around three recognized chorale melodies: Durch Adams Fall (“Through Adam’s Fall”) in the first movement; O Lamm Gottes, unschuldig (“O Lamb of God, without Blame”) in the second movement; and Christ lag in Todesbanden (“Christ Lay in the Bonds of Death”) in the third and fourth movements. Although Maslanka’s works usually portray feelings of loss and grief, Symphony No. 5 is filled with a bright and hopeful energy. The music continually speaks to the theme of transformation – the transformation of tears into power, and the victory of life over death.

Sight Reading Rhythm
A Self-Teaching Course for All Musicians and All Instruments

Sight Reading Rhythm was originally used as a tool to help drummers improve their sight reading skills. It soon became apparent that other musicians were also interested in improving their rhythmic sight reading. This book covers the breaking down and reading of rhythm patterns and sight reading. Zimmerman explains how to get around “charts” using “Road Maps” and how to apply melody to rhythm exercises. Highlights include a CD containing all of the exercises and special metronome tracks for practice, a section especially for drummers and plenty of supplementary exercises.
