CONCERT & CONTEST
Through the Storm—JaRod Hall. The winner
of the Barbara Buehlman prize in composition
hosted by The Midwest Clinic, this engaging
work takes on both the breathtaking majesty and
the volatile nature of the storm and its aftermath.
Percussion instruments clash and clamor,
whipping the melodic ideas from one section to
another. Tensions rise and fall as the temperature
begins to drop before the music sends listeners
charging to the eyewall. The piece ends with a
gentle whisper of air as the storm subsides.

tation)—Randall D. Standridge. Windsor Chimes

is heard in the sounds of ticking clocks, cuckoo
birds, and more. This arrangement, rescored for
ensembles with smaller instrumentation, retains
the intensity and energy of the original!
