Program Notes
Gilgamesh was inspired by the tradition of comradeship and
brotherhood found in the ancient Sumerian epic, Gilgamesh, and the
Verdi opera, La Forza del destino. In both, the dominant theme is
the loyalty, bravery, and lasting friendship of men thrown together
by fate. In Gilgamesh, the title character, a king in the kingdom
of Uruk, first wages a heroic struggle against Enkidu, a wild man
of the forest. Their battle lasts for days until they are both
forced to admit that they have met their equal, and they then
become fast friends. Wondrous adventures ensue, as they slay the
great bull of heaven, and fell the cedar forest of the gods. But
alas, the gods become jealous of Enkidu and strike him down.
Gilgamesh weeps bitter tears and seeks to find the answer to
eternal life, only to be informed by the gods that death is their
most important gift to man.
In La Forza del destino, Don Alvaro and Don Carlo are thrown
together as two soldiers in the midst of a battle, not knowing that
Don Alvaro has accidentally killed Don Carlo’s father and been the
lover of Leonora, Don Carlo’s sister. They too have grand
adventures until their friendship is destroyed by the discovery of
their fateful history.
All melodic material in the work has been derived from the Verdi
opera’s main theme, first heard here in its entirety in mm. 3–6 in
the tuba and bassoon. This theme is presented several times, most
notably in the last few measures. Other melodic material is derived
from the four diatonic ascending tones in the theme.
Performance Notes
Care should be taken to maintain an expressive, legato style
with the exception of the few marcato notes in m. 60 and beyond.
Feel free to employ rubato throughout the entire work, especially
at the ends of phrases. Capturing the tragic theme of the work will
be best achieved by maintaining strict control over the dynamics,
and not letting the crescendo reach its peak until m. 60. Measures
60 and 61 should be performed without decrescendo. From those
measures to the end, the tempo should slow down, and the dynamics
should recede in a gradual reduction to the peaceful and delicate
last tones.
Dedication
Edward J. Gobrecht studied bassoon at the Curtis Institute of
Music and went on to perform with both the New Orleans and
Baltimore Symphonies. He was the professor of bassoon and the
conductor of the famed Ithaca College Concert Band in Ithaca, where
he taught for many years. For many years, I have been fortunate to
call him my teacher, my friend, and my colleague. While we have not
slain any monsters, or fought any heroic battles, his friendship
has been an important part of my life, and his innate sense of
artistry has been a true inspiration. La Forza del destino is his
favorite overture.
—Gregory B. RudgersIthaca, New York

The Carl Fischer Performance Series for Band has five
performance levels to provide you with a highly focused repertoire
for your band. Each level has been carefully designed and graded,
within specific guidelines, so that each piece in a level will work
with your band when it achieves that level. Each level is also
color coded for ease in finding the series that will be appropriate
for your band, as it develops.
Within each grade level, you will find selections in a variety
of styles and genres designed to meet all of your performance and
teaching needs. The Carl Fischer composers and arrangers are some
of the most respect-ed writers in the business. Their music is
dynamic, fresh and eminently worthy of your attention.
Symphonic Performance Series• Standard concert band
instrumentation• Difficulty within reason for high school groups•
Expanded percussion section, increased instrument options• Mature
pieces of high musical value
