Page 23
Composition: Galop_x000D_Composer: Shostakovich_x000D_
Means for
Expression
First use of stacatto, with fewer instruments playing. The 16th note is introduced. Sounds like a
call and response with the higher instruments calling with the deeper instruments responding
with heavy accents.
Conducting
Concerns
I must change my personality with each section change. My pattern needs to look like a
different person that is very light 3 beats and heavy for 1. It also needs to be smaller than
before to show the dynamic change.
Rehearsal
Consideration
16th notes need to remain in time. There aren't any crazy range problems except in the first
trumpet and flute/picc. Chromatic line at the end needs to be played with precision, placing each
note not just guessing. Rep the chromatic scale in warm-ups.

Means for
Expression
Highest instruments in the band are playing the melody, which is outlining a major arpeggio
then followed by a 16th note triplet giving it a light airy feel.
Conducting
Concerns
Go back to the lightness like in the B section but direct your attention toward the upper
woodwinds. Show on your face the happiness/dancy attitude you want them to play with.
Rehearsal
Consideration

note in tempo.
