FALL HARVEST CONCERT Thursday, October 14, 2021 -D A N I E L N A U S S -B A R B A R A P H E L P S - H U T S O N DIRECTORS OF STRING ENSEMBLES PLAIN LOCAL SCHOOL SCHOOLS

OAKWOOD MIDDLE SCHOOL COMBINED STRING ORCHESTRA Fiddling A-Round ………………………….......................John Camponegro This is a driving piece in the key of e natural minor. It was chosen to represent all the sections and work some problem pitch in this key. The same music with different entrances proves a real challenge for the weaker music readers. I’m an “ear person”, so I understand all too well.

Creatures ……………………………………..............................Brian Balmages This is also a driving piece that really pushes section independence and the ability to change quickly from one chromatic note to another. This piece is really rhythmic and uses many bow techniques!

Ghostbusters……………………………………..............................Ray Parker Jr Well, this just speaks for itself. This pushes all sections out of their comfort zones. There are many places where the instrumentalists HAVE TO shift into another position to reach their notes. It’s a challenge… It’s sure to be a trick…. AND a treat!

GLENOAK HIGH SCHOOL SYMPHONIC STRINGS Darkened Shadows………………………..........................Joshua Reznicow Waltz of the Wicked……………………………..........................Kirt N. Moiser

GLENOAK HIGH SCHOOL STRING ORCHESTRA Mystic Mountain……………………………….............................Chris Thomas A Danny Elfman Spooktacular………...................Elfman, Arr. Wagner

OWMS and GOHS Combined Orchestra Ghost in the Living Room……………………..........................Susan H. Day *Featuring the OWMS Select Choir

*Announcement of Costume Contest Finalists and Winners* OWMS 7th and 8th Grade Finalists GOHS Finalists Overall Runner Up Overall Winner

This Is Halloween………………………………...........................Danny Elfman
