For the year 2021, we have focused on an overlooked piece of music to our students by Edmund Dédé, a historically important, though often overlooked and marginalized composer from New Orleans, LA. We are excited and encouraged by the recent commitment to programming music that allows all of our students to see themselves and the communities around them reflected in a more representative group of composers. Like most of you, we are always searching for new or self-published composers who are not supported by the publishing industry or discovering historical composers and works who have been marginalized by classical music over centuries. We believe that this project addresses both objectives.
Consortium Details:
Separate Band and String Orchestra arrangement of Mephisto Masque (1889) by Edmund Dédé (1827-1904). Both works will be approximately a grade 3.5 difficulty and will not be a flex arrangement. Arrangements will be created by composer Lawren Brianna Ware.
