Show Title
Art Alive: A Musical Painting
Repertoire
Art Alive is about what it's like to live inside a painting! Musical selections include:

Intro - Promenade from Pictures at an Exhibition by Mussorgsky;
The introduction/on-field running start warm up to the show.

Opener - "The Potential of a Blank Canvas", Flight of the Thunderbird by Richard Saucedo; This driving wind ensemble chart conveys the hopes an artist has when stepping up to a fresh, blank canvas. The corps, using uniform chrome horns, start separate, but slowly come together as the picture is formed, and the movement draws to it's climax.

Ballad - "A Completed Picture", Layers by Richard Saucedo; In the ballad, the painter begins to add brush strokes to the canvas. Section by section, the chrome horns are replaced with colored ones-- pink trumpets, green mellos, light blue baritones, and soft yellow contras. Each section is featured, and at the end of the ballad, the painting is complete with color.

Closer - "Near Destruction, and the Building of Character", Babayaga's Hut, The Great Gate of Kiev by Mussorgsky;

In the closer, the painting is nearly ruined by a false stroke. In a rage, the painter begins to throw paint, attempting to hide the mistake. Each section is given a mix-matched color horn, no two horns with the same color. What will happen in the end? Will the painting be ruined forever or will the painter be able to make a mistake into the flaw that makes the painting not just a picture, but art?
