Links!

Here are some links I found to content relating to my final project.

http://stevenbryant.com/electronic.php – This is a link to Steven Bryant’s other electronic music. This might be valuable in teaching about how Steven Bryant writes his electronics parts

http://www.stevenbryant.com/blog/?p=1085 – Link to Steven Bryant’s blog post about the new iPhone/Android app for “The Machine Awakes”! The electronics on this piece are so easy to use that it is possible for a band director to cue the electronics themselves

http://www.stevenbryant.com/blog/?p=561 – Another of Steven Bryant’s blog posts, this one about his newest electronic work “Solace”. This post goes into slightly more detail than his program notes

http://www.alexshapiro.org/ASWorks.html#cwb – Link to the website of another composer who has written extensively for band and electronics, as well as solo instruments and electronics

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdtw4L585Ls – The first of Steven Bryant’s how-to videos for the electronics in Ecstatic Waters. From this video, you can navigate to the rest of the videos

http://youtu.be/CqYGOk7Z9zY – A video of performance of Ecstatic Waters by New Mexico State University’s Symphonic Winds

http://www.amazon.com/Augenblick-Johnston-Catherine-University-Ensemble/dp/B007X128AY/ref=tmm_other_meta_binding_title_0 – Here’s an album (on Amazon) of the Cornell University Wind Ensemble playing pieces for Band and electronics. These pieces are somewhat underplayed (generally) but can still make for interesting listening outside of Bryant’s music

And finally, here’s a link to what I have so far in my unit. It’s still in progress, but I hope you like it so far!
