Call of the Ancient Clans takes players back to the time of the dawn of man, when neighboring tribes could communicate with each other not by racing through the harsh jungle or dry desert, but by the use of different rhythm instruments. Music was also used in religious rituals, celebrations and to share the history of the group.With an interesting, pulsating rhythm and catchy woodwind lines, Call of the Ancient Clans is sure to light a fire under students and get them involved in making some exhilarating music. The notes can be easily played by those with over a year of band experience, but will also provide a good challenge, as the first clarinets do go over the break a couple of times.Students will have a lot of fun playing double forte (who doesn’t?). However, caution students that playing “as loud as you can” can lead to bad-sounding notes. Balance with the person next to you; if you can’t hear them, you’re too loud. Double forte is a bit like calling to your friend from across the gym when nobody else is in there. You don’t want to be louder than that.Who has the melody at each rehearsal mark? Your students should know and if they do not, tell them. If they don’t have the melody, they need to back off their notes and play softer. Let the melody shine.Balance will make this piece truly sing. I hope you enjoy playing it; I loved writing it.
