Program Notes
Henry Fillmore was one of the most colorful and beloved band leaders this country
has ever seen. The term "renaissance man" rings true when considering Fillmoret eclectic
career as circus musician, tight-rope-walker, assistant lion tamer, substitute clown, semipro football player, trombonist, band leader and composer.
Tbe Crosley March was written and named after Powell Crosley, business man and
radio station owner, whose support and broadcasts led to nationwide recognition for the
Fillmore Band.
Noble Men was first performed in 7922, by Fillmoret Syrian Temple Band at the
National Shrine Convention in San Francisco. It was dedicated to Ralph A. Tingle,
Potentate of the Syrian Gmple.
Note by James Smart

Eliot Del Borgo is a

Professor

of Composition at the

Crane School

of Music

at the State University of New York at Potsdam. He has received numerous awards, prizes,
and commissions for his works placing him among the out-standing band composers in

the United States.

The composition of Do Not Go Gentle into Tbat Good Night was inspired by a
Dylan Thomas poem sharing the same name. There are no direct references to the poem
in the work. Instead, it offers an overall arrempt to convey its essence.
Note by James Smart
Douglas Akey's Of Dreams and Legends was commissioned by and dedicated to the
Arizona Band and Orchestra Directors Association and was premiered on February 13,
1999, by the North Central Region High School Honor Band with the composer
conducting. It was written to capture both the tranquillity and contrasting spirit of
adventure often associated with the western United States.
- Note by Daehn Publishing
