3 With Quiet Relection SA M PL E With Quiet Relection as commission by Dr. Larence R. Sutherland and the Fresno Madera Counties Music Educators Association or the FMCMEA High School County Honor Orchestra. It as remiered on Sunday, January 17, 010 ith Dr. Sutherland conducting honor orchestra in Fresno, Caliornia. When Dr. Sutherland discussed a commission ith comoser Dr. Gary P. Gilroy his only request as that Gilroy create a lush ork or strings, lyric in nature. Many o Gilroy s 100+ ublications are rather ild, energetic, and oten ritten or ind bands o one kind or another. This change o ace or Dr. Gilroy as a elcome challenge, although, ould have never been ossible ithout the exert hel o his Fresno State colleague, Dr. Thomas Loeenheim, Conductor o the Fresno State Orchestra and roessional cellist, and one o Gilroy s very talented conducting students, Miss Brook Okada, a violin major in Dr. Loeenheim s ine orchestra. Gilroy is very grateul or the guidance and assistance ith boings rovided by Dr. Loeenheim and Miss Okada. Just under seven minutes in length, With Quiet Relection rovides the erormer ith some assionate music to take the listen on a journey o calm and quiet relection. The melodic material is accessible to the listener hile stretching the erormer ith ide leas and some moments o dramatic dissonance. The ork is quite tonal ith melodies, almost haunting in nature, that are meant to stay ith the listener ell beyond the live erormance o the ork. The oortunity to comose music or thin and transarent textures as very aealing to this band comoser. Dr. Gilroy took ull advantage o this in his exloration o extreme sot dynamic levels and then critically dramatic moments at much louder volumes. He ound the ossibilities most delightul. As i to relicate these extreme dynamic contrasts, Gilroy used both minor and major tonalities simultaneously in several key sots throughout the ork to oer more tension and eventually release. Gary P.
