rogram Note "anare or ull athom ive" takes its title rom Shakeseare's "The Temest," here Shakeseare's text reers to a droning during a storm and shireck in ater aout ive athoms (0 eet) dee: ull athom ive thy ather lies; O his ones are coral made; Those are earls that ere his eyes; Nothing o him that doth ade, ut doth suer a seachange Into something rich and strange. William Shakeseare, The Temest: I.2.9601. In The Temest, this rather oreoding and gloomy text is sung y the tormented sirit Ariel to the young rince o Nales, erdinand, ho has just escaed a shireck caused y the eonymous storm and is unaare o hether his ather the King, Alonso has survived. In reality, Ariel s dire taunt roves to e somehat inaccurate, ut his song has a lace in the English lexicon artly due to to hrases hich have entered common usage: ull athom ive, a nautical reerence that indicates a lacement under a deth o thirty eet o ater ut is used metahorically to imly an imossile and unavoidale doom; and seachange, hich descries an unexected and roound transormation. oth o these images, along ith the ackdro o a tumultuous squall, aint the musical language o John Mackey s anare or ull athom ive. The anare is scored or an athletic array o rass and ercussion: six trumets (delierately slit into to quasiantihonal trios), six horns, three tenor tromones, three ass tromones, to tuas, and our ercussion, ith an ad liitum organ and the ossile sustitution o contraass tromone. The orchestration and architecture o the iece is designed to e analogous to Richard Strauss Wiener hilharmoniker anare, ut here Strauss anare is emotionally straightorard ith ounds o unstoale heroism, Mackey s is more comlex, taking the traditional anare rhythms and motis and lurring them ith a hirlind o dissonance through chromaticism and murky glissandi that resent the hole in a darker and more sinister context. All o the tyical hallmarks o the anare genre are resent: virantly articulated trilets in the trumets, soaring horn lines, and rash edal oints in the lo rass (douled colorully y the organ). The harmonic language is one o arut shit; the lustery oening seems to clearly estalish lat major as the home key, ut each time it seems to reairm this notion, it veers ildly into unexected territory. The iece ends triumhantly in Elat, ut along the ay it also takes detouring ventures through Dlat, Glat, and erhas most strangely, E major during the ork s contrastingly delicate midoint. In the end, desite a journey that is continuously rich and strange, the heroes in the day and, as in The Temest, all comes to a hay and victorious conclusion. Duration: aout minutes "anare or ull athom ive" received its orld remiere on March 26, 2015, ith the Columus State University Wind Ensemle, conducted y Jamie L. Nix, in Schermerhorn Symhony Center in Nashville, Tennessee, as art o the College and Directors National Association (CDNA) National Convention.
